Description
-Ilia Delio, OSF, Josephine Connelly Endowed Chair in Theology Villanova University
"Dolores Leckey is one of American Catholicism's great unsung heroes. The first executive director of the U.S. Bishops' Secretariat for the Laity, she was instrumental in helping the hierarchy hear the grace-filled stories of ordinary Catholics. This is her own grace-filled story. It is a tender memoir that draws readers into the larger drama of American Catholicism over the past century-from immigrant enclave and parochial school to Catholic Action, Civil Rights, charismatic renewal, lay ministry, ecumenism, and the never-ending quest for an authentic spirituality. Leckey lived it, led it, and now leaves us this treasure. Required reading for anyone who wants to know what Vatican II really meant for the church in the United States."
-Edward P. Hahnenberg, Ph.D., is author of Theodore Hesburgh, CSC: Bridge Builder, Theology for Ministry, and other titles. He is the Jack & Mary Jane Breen Chair in Catholic Theology at John Carroll University.
