About the Author

Cheri Lomonte is a photojournalist who began this project by photographing pictures of the Madonna. After hearing heart-stopping personal accounts associated with Mother Mary, she recorded the stories to share with others who might be equally inspired by them.

In the five years that she collected stories and photographs, she traveled extensively to all parts of the world, including Nicaragua, Peru, Italy, France, and most of the United States. Lomonte is convinced that every person has a story to tell and is currently collecting stories for her second book. She and her husband, Tony, live in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and enjoy visiting their six grown children in various areas of the United States.

This review is from: The Healing Touch of Mary: Real Life Stories from Those Touched by Mary (Paperback)

Cheri Lamonte's The Healing Touch of Mary is an inspirational and deeply spiritual book, which brings the reader into direct contact with hundreds of anecdotes and personal experiences of the maternal role of Mary in the life of all believers. Our society needs books that motivate us to believe and conquer the pessimism brought on by faithless doubt. I find it to be a great contribution to the world of inspirational books."

This review is from: The Healing Touch of Mary: Real Life Stories from Those Touched by Mary (Paperback)

I've read and taken a cursory look at many titles on this subject and none compare to Lomonte's Healing Touch of Mary. Her photography of the images and skill in relating the stories she's collected are the work of a true artist. It's easy to become absorbed in these tales of miracles and faith. If you're not a believer buying this book won't make a difference in your life. However,if your faith is strong these stories and images will reinforce your belief that Mary has and does touch our lives. Well done!

This review is from: The Healing Touch of Mary: Real Life Stories from Those Touched by Mary (Paperback)

This book left me with an emotional drain and a renewed spirit of faith. Mary has long been my inspiration, support, and guide and reading this book has left me with a stronger sense of belief in Mother Mary. The book appeals to all denominations and confirms that we do not walk this earth alone. I will share it with friends and family to reconnect and reflect on our lives. This is a true "gem" and will, hopefully, help to inspire and motivate the faith within us all.
