I was asked by my publisher Marian Press (based in Stockbridge, Mass) to write a book for the Great Jubilee Year of Hope in our Church which occurs in 2025. My newest book is titled: “Our Life, Our Sweetness, and Our Hope: Jubilee Pilgrims of Hope with Mary” and is due to be released very soon!
It is a true labor of love! Thanks to my very kind publisher, working hard and putting my book on a very fast track, it will be released in time for the Great Jubilee of Hope, but also in time for your Christmas gift-giving!
I’ll share a few secrets below. . . .
A few secrets!
Just very quickly for now, I’ll let you in on a few secrets:
- I have used a word in this book that I have never ever used before in any of my previously published books! And I have over 35 books out thus far! To be honest, I was a bit surprised that it wasn’t edited out! 🙂
- In my new book, I have revealed many very personal stories (some I didn’t plan to share)
- I have also shared many compelling true stories, which might keep you on the edge of your seat.
- But, very simply put, my new book is ALL about HOPE and how Mama Mary helps us!
Cardinal Dolan of New York has said about this book:
One of the devil’s most cunning tricks is trying to lead us to
despair, to believing that we are beyond God’s redemptive grace.
Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle’s fine book, Our Life, Our Sweetness,
and Our Hope! is a welcome reminder that our Blessed Mother
is always there for us, and a constant source of hope, encourage-
ment, and companionship towards a closer relationship with her
Son, Jesus.
— His Eminence, Timothy Cardinal Dolan,
Archbishop of New York

Here is a bit of a description taken from my Preface:
Hope is truly a lifesaver! Whether we have struggled through a world-wide pandemic, are dealing with seemingly hopeless diagnoses, losses, family troubles, or whatever else that might have caused us to become tempted to give up on hope, we should realize that God is certainly the foundation of our every hope. He will forever be. We need to continue to hope in His loving promises. He will never leave us! And He gifted us with the most eminent gift ever — His own Mother!
This book presents many reasons for hope in our world today through the lens of Our Mother Mary and some of her apparitions around the world. Join Our Blessed Mother, “Our Life, Our Sweetness, and Our Hope” on an inspiring journey to coincide with the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope.
Let’s learn from and become inspired by the great pilgrims of hope who have gone before us (and those still with us): Jesus, Mary, St. Joseph, and the saints! Let us pray to encounter our Lord Jesus Christ in a more profound way, becoming pilgrims of hope in our weary world!
Pope Francis encourages us in this time of jubilee: “Let us lift up our hearts to Christ, and become singers of hope in a world marked by too much despair. By our actions, our words, the decisions we make each day, our patient efforts to sow seeds of beauty and kindness wherever we find ourselves, we want to sing of hope, so that its melody can touch the heartstrings of humanity and reawaken in every heart the joy and the courage to embrace life to the full.”
Yes, we can do this — during the Jubilee Year and beyond! Mother Mary will help us! Our world thirsts for hope. Let us carry the torch!
