THE HOLY ROSARY OF MARY, THE BELOVED: A DEVOTIONAL TO MARY MAGDALENE -- "The Magdalene Devotional" --, a book about women in religion, is dedicated to the Rt. Rev. Barbara C. Harris. Bishop Harris is the first woman ordained to episcopacy in the 40 million member world-wide Anglican Communion. The book has been reviewed, enjoyed & commented on as a book with deep spiritual message & a beautiful work of art. The manuscript was presented at a Convocation honoring Mary Magdalene at San Francisco's Grace Cathedral, which was presided over by Bishop Harris. The book is printed on 67 pages of finely textured paper & contains 30 exquisite pen & ink drawings, bringing to life the deep message of the text for men & women of today. "My initial reading found it thought-provoking. I look forward to San Francisco & the Grace Cathedral event & I will be pleased to share your joyful offering with friends there."-Rt. Rev. Barbara C. Harris, Suffragan Bishop, The Episcopal Diocese of MA. "...a worthy project..."-Harold W. Rast, Th.D., Director, Trinity Press International, Phil. "I was touched & very moved by the idea, the sentiment & sensitivity. It evoked pictures in my mind that were both tender & powerful..."-A reader. "It is beyond the scope of ATR to publish works of this type. We sincerely hope that you will find a place for it in some other journal, perhaps one with a more popular readership."--The Anglican Theological Review. "It is beautifully written."--Owen Thomas, Prof. of Theology, Episcopal Divinity School, Cambridge, MA. The literary form of the book--the Rosary--was chosen as a revered Catholic form, to enable the book to reach out in an ecumenical spirit to all churches, & to the general public. Expressing a message for men & women of today, the book calls on the spirit of Vatican II & the words of Pope John XXIIII to describe itself: "The Rosary...is a form of union with God, & has a most uplifting effect on the soul."Moyer, Lloyd K. is the author of 'Holy Rosary of Mary, the Beloved A Devotional to Mary Magdalene' with ISBN 9780963150707 and ISBN 0963150707.
