  Ten Hail Marys

  Kate Howarth

  In Ten Hail Marys, Kate Howarth vividly recalls the first seventeen years of her life in Sydney's slums, suburbs and rural New South Wales, Australia.  
  Abandoned by her mother as a baby, and then by her volatile grandmother. Kate was 14 when she was sent to live with a neighbour, who barely tolerated her. Kate was taken out of school three days before she was scheduled to take the exams for the Intermediate Certificate, the minimum education required to obtain meaningful employment. 
  At 15, everything and everyone Kate called family and home was gone. 
  In January 1966, Kate gave birth to a healthy baby boy at St. Margaret's Home for unwed mothers in Sydney. In the months before and the days after the birth, she resisted treatment that had been deemed tantamount to torture when she steadfastly refused to sign the consent for adoption. 
  Kate's son, whom she called Adam, was the only family she had left. If they were going to take him, they would have to do so without her consent. 
  Of the thousands of unwed mothers at the time, Kate became the only unwed mother who could be found who left the institution with her baby. She was only sixteen years old. What inspired such courage and determination? 
  Ten Hail Marys is a frank, at times funny and incredibly moving true story, told without an ounce of bitterness or self-pity. 
  More than a memoir of Kate's life struggles, Ten Hail Marys blew the whistle on one of the darkest chapters in Australian social history. 
  Following publication in 2010, Ten Hail Marys was shortlisted for the Victorian Premier's Literary Award for Indigenous writing and won the Age Non-Fiction Book of the Year 2010 in an open category. 
  In 2011, Kate gave evidence to the National Senate Inquiry into what is now known as Forced Adoption Practices, which led to changes in adoption laws.

  Out of The Shadow of Silence

  Out of the Shadow of Silence follows the tumultuous journey of a woman thirsting for love against a backdrop of adversity. In this epic rescue mission, God's love challenges the power of abusive behaviors and self-destruction mechanisms. We watch attentively as God's tender mercies meet each desperation with an abundance of peace. We discover the scope of His love and patience, remaining steadfast until every wound is healed and all darkness has been displaced by light. 
  Perhaps you may wonder why I have chosen to write this intro in the third person. Please allow me to explain. My name is Pastor Marilyn Marrero, and this is my story. Despite the fact that I am narrating this true account of my life, the woman you are about to meet is no longer in existence. Even as I write most of the pages of this book, she is unrecognizable to me, nothing more than a distant memory. 
  My deepest hope and prayer is that the same love that rescued me from Out of the Shadows of Silence would bring you into the marvelous light, where old things are made new, and you too can realize the beauty and freedom found in your God-given identity. 
  Let's get started!

  One Small Step - The incredible...

  Read by the author, Paul Sinton-Hewitt, and his co-author, Matt Whyman. Including an audio-exclusive Q&A between Paul and Matt.This is the story of a simple idea that turned into a global movement. This is the story of parkrun, told for the very first time from the man who started it all.Growing up in the brutal care system of South Africa, Paul Sinton-Hewitt had a lonely, difficult childhood. Yet he found solace in running – a simple pleasure that taught him resilience and offered a young boy a sense of self-worth.With dogged determination, Paul built a stable family life for himself and eventually settled in the UK. But by 2004 he was struggling to hold it all together. He’d lost the successful career he’d worked so hard for, his marriage had broken down, and now a devastating injury threatened to cut him off from the running club which had been a lifeline.In search of connection and purpose, Paul came up with a simple idea. He would start a weekly time trial run every Saturday morning in his local park. There would be no winners or losers, it would always be free and Paul would be there every week – even on Christmas Day – whether or not anyone else came. Little did he know that from just thirteen runners on that first Saturday, parkrun would grow into a 10 million strong community across five continents. Twenty years on parkrun continues to grow, bringing together people from all walks of life in search of health, happiness and community.Filled with hope and optimism, One Small Step is a powerful affirmation of how coming together in simple ways can change our own lives and might even change the world.
