Marge Fenelon, award-winning Catholic journalist and Catholic Herald columnist, will be embarking on a blog tour as part of her book launch celebration. Imitating Mary: Ten Marian Virtues for the Modern Mom delves into ten moments of Mary’s life that reveal her as the timeless companion for mothers.  Fenelon introduces readers to a Mary who faced challenges familiar to every mother—impatience, frustration, sacrifice, and grief—and demonstrates how, in the face of these ordinary obstacles, Mary’s response was an extraordinary example through the virtues of patience, joy, trust, and faith.

Beginning April 22, follow along as bloggers feature posts about Imitating Mary. Each stop on the tour will include information, impressions, insights, and interviews with Fenelon. Stops on the blog tour schedule currently include:
