From the publisher:
“Part spiritual memoir, part theological exploration, When Mary Calls is an emotionally resonant narrative tapestry of deeply personal, testimonial-style stories of Marian encounters today, reflecting Margarita Mooney Clayton’s unique voice as both scholar and spiritual witness. Through seven compelling personal stories—including Clayton’s own dangerous missions to help dissidents in her mother’s homeland of Cuba—this book reveals Mary’s maternal protection at work and explores how she binds believers to authentic faith communities. Through these contemporary encounters with Mary, Clayton shows how the Mother of God offers what our disenchanted age desperately seeks: an alternative to sterile rationalism and a path to authentic spiritual renewal.”
