Book Description
About the Book The Healing Desert: In the Sands of Time As a cancer survivor, I can tell you that I would not be where I am today without my deep faith in the power of the almighty God. Along with my personal story of healing and spiritual development, I have tried to put my feelings into poems, and I pray that you will be able to capture the messages in between, knowing that our God never fails us. Too often, we are crushed, broken, and spilled out, and we never understand why it's all happening. Have you ever asked yourself the following? Why do I suffer so much? Why do I always have to carry a burden? Yet Jesus promised, "Come to Me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). The Healing Desert is here to show you how to develop your trust and faith in the Lord, and how He is going to bring about positive change in your life. Are you ready to receive a first-hand account of God's miracles and wondrous works? If your answer is yes, then I encourage you to take a journey with me through this Healing Desert: In the Sands of Time while we ponder this mystery: Do I really know and understand God's love for me? Tuesday October 8, 2013, 5.30 am Feast of St Denis & Companions, Martyrs I finished reading this book written by Mrs. Mona Hadeed this morning. I found the material compelling reading, and at times it brought tears to my eyes. This is a true story, a very human story of Mona, her life, joys, sorrows and struggles. But with sound faith in God, Mona overcame the impossible! To God be all the Glory. Fr Michael Hayden Parish Priest, St Finbar's Roman Catholic Church

Book Description
There are some women who don't have a desire to get married and have children. However, Samantha was not one of them. Many women in their late 30s and early 40s postpone marriage or childbearing to obtain their education, establish their careers, and become financially secure. Unfortunately, this sometimes leads to difficulties in finding Mr. Right or conceiving (or both). This can be an arduous and heartbreaking time of life, when it seems lifelong hopes and dreams of family may not be possible. Samantha delayed marriage until the age of 36 after she'd pursued advanced degrees and established her career—not entirely by choice since Mr. Right hadn't entered her life sooner. At times she wondered if it would ever happen. Once married, she and her husband wanted kids right away, only to suffer a miscarriage and the devastating diagnosis of infertility. In this book, Samantha shares her extraordinary journey of hope. You will discover how her faith in God and perseverance led her to the right husband and overcoming infertility to have their first baby at 40. Don't give up on your dreams, whatever they are. You still have time.

Book Description
How many people can count among their closest friends Ethel Merman (the Queen of Broadway), Mother Teresa (beatified by the Vatican in October, 2003), Lee Lehman, (wife of Robert Lehman, head of Lehman Brothers), Pierre Cardin (legendary couturier and major show-business force in Europe), and many others? Well, Tony Cointreau, a scion of the French liqueur family, can. After a successful international singing career, and several years on the Cointreau board of directors, he felt a need for something more meaningful in his life. His voice had taken him to the stage, and his heart took him to Calcutta. Tony’s childhood experiences with an emotionally remote mother, an angry bullying brother, a cold and unprotective Swiss nurse, and a sexually predatory schoolteacher left him convinced that the only way to be loved is to be perfect. This led him on a lifelong quest for love and for a mother figure. His first “other mother” was the internationally acclaimed beauty Lee Lehman. Then, after Tony met the iconic Broadway diva Ethel Merman, she became his mentor and second “other mother.” His memoir describes in detail his intimate family relationships with both women, as well as his years of work and friendship with Mother Teresa, his last “other mother.” Tony’s memoir voices his opinion that he had no special gifts or talents to bring to Mother Teresa’s work and that if he could do it, then anyone could do it. In the end, all that really matters is a willingness to share even a small part of oneself with others.

Book Description
History and Hope: The International Humanitarian Reader provides a better understanding—both within and outside academia—of the multifaceted demands posed by humanitarian assistance programs. The Reader is a compilation of the most important chapters in the twelve-volume International Humanitarian Affairs book series published by Fordham University Press. Each selected chapter has been edited and updated. In addition, the series editor, Kevin M. Cahill, M.D., has written, among other chapters, an introductory essay explaining the academic evolution of the discipline of humanitarian assistance. It focuses on the “Fordham Experience”: its Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs (IIHA) has developed practical programs for training fieldworkers, especially those dealing with complex emergencies following conflicts and man-made or natural disasters.
