NOTRE DAME, IN (January 28, 2010) - In her compelling first book, The Handbook for Catholic Moms: Nurturing Your Heart, Mind, Body, and Soul, Lisa Hendey collects the wisdom of her popular ten-year-old website, CatholicMom.com.

Drawing from the deep tradition of the Catholic faith, Hendey coaches Catholic moms how to care for themselves —heart, mind, body, and soul—so that they can better love and care for their families, their neighbors, and their Church.

With warmth and wisdom, Hendey creates an environment where Catholic moms can reflect peacefully upon often-competitive topics like parenting styles, types of schooling, and working outside the home. By sharing her own story, Hendey inspires moms to better balance their own needs with the demands of family life and faith commitment.

Hendey is a wife and mother of two boys, as well as a web designer and freelance writer. She is a regular contributor to Faith & Family Live, Catholic Exchange, Catholic Online, Catholic.net, and countless other internet publications.

"Warm, wise, funny, compassionate, faith-filled, and, above all experienced in the joys and struggles of family life, Hendey's new book will be a lifesaver to Catholic women who try, hope, and pray to be good moms," says James Martin, S.J., author of My Life with the Saints.
