Summer reading from Anne, a lay apostle

With summer just around the corner, some of us will be traveling or having a bit more free time, and looking for a good book to add to our reading list or share with a friend.  We would like to recommend one or more of the books written by Anne, a lay apostle. These books are not only captivating, but often have life-long benefits, as illustrated by the many testimonials we receive from people across the world.     Here’s what one lay apostle wrote after reading Climbing the Mountain, in which Anne describes her mystical experience of Heaven and how God wants us to live while on earth: “This book is amazing! As I sat for weeks in the hospital with my mom, I relied on all the insights it gave me on trust, suffering and ultimately death. My fears were taken away, and I actually experienced a great sense of calm.  Every time I have read this book since, I have experienced new graces.”     In Mist of Mercy, Anne writes in clear, comforting language about the reality of spiritual warfare, as well as her mystical experience of purgatory. This is part of a testimonial we received: “A friend told me I should read this book, so I did. That’s how and when the beautiful graces and blessings started. I have read all of the Volumes, as well, and they have healed me immensely and I attribute my healing and getting over my husband’s death to these books.”     Serving in Clarity is Anne’s latest book, in which Jesus shows her the state of the world from His perspective, and how, specifically, we can make a difference in the world. Here’s what one lay apostle wrote: “It delivers on what the title hints at- clarity. There are clear messages that inspire the attitude and life of service that we are all called to as Christians.”        Heavenly Healing was born when lay apostle Bonnie Shoemaker began to record testimonies from lay apostles throughout the world. Sister Briege McKenna wrote:  "Anyone who doubts the power of God should read this book.”      Many continue to be touched, comforted, and inspired by these books. Consider ordering them today for yourself or for those you care about.
