Publisher's Synopsis
This is a lively and engaging story that draws the reader into the life of Dolores Leckey, who lived through the historic changes of Vatican II. Finding herself in the midst of a Church seeking to engage the world, Dolores became a pivotal figure in the role of the laity in the Church. Her courage, fortitude and example of a committed Christian life shows that the extraordinary is often done in the ordinary. Her book comes at a timely moment in today's Church and world. A mother, teacher and gifted writer, Dolores bears witness to the beauty of a chaotic Church that forges on in faith, because God is the power of the future."
