http://okwriters.blogspot.com/ AUTHOR ANNE URNE Anne Urne Speaking at An Author in Town Series at Southwestern Christian University in Bethany, Oklahoma. "Writing is a magical experience for me", remarked the author to her audience, her eyes soft with fond memories. Oklahoma City author Anne Urne, continued, "My writing just kept evolving. My research led to more questions and the answers pushed me onward." At a recent book event, this author of Communion of Saints (2012), A Spiritual Trilogy (2003), and Trust Me: The Untold Story of Mary Magdalene (2004), charmed the audience with her story of her journey as an author and her exciting travels as she pursued new projects. "My biggest moment ?" she laughed in response to a question. "It was when I published my first book and walked into the local library and found my name in the recent edition of Books in Print!"

Nuns Unfairly Chastised

BBC Headline 4/19/2012: “The Vatican has ordered a crackdown on a group of American nuns that it considers too radical.” St. Peter in the Gospel of Mary Magdalene: “Must we change our customs, and listen to this woman? Did he really choose her, and prefer her to us? Then Mary wept . . .” 2012 years after Peter caused Mary to weep, the tradition and customs of disrespect remains and is verbalized from the very seat of St. Peter as the Pope denounces our nuns for "feminist themes incompatible with the Catholic faith". BBC reports “Vatican officials also castigated the group for making some public statements that "disagree with or challenge positions taken by the bishops", who are the church's "authentic teachers of faith and morals." Should our nuns really be told they are NOT “authentic teachers of faith and morals?” These holy sisters are on the ground working every day with the sick, the poor, educating our children, feeding our hungry, praying constantly, and yet whether they speak or do not speak the Church is chastising them unfairly, unjustly and with complete flagrant disrespect for all women. Every woman should be aware and appalled about this unprecedented and unwarranted prejudice of females. There should be more than an apology demanded for this outrage, there should be a new and revitalized feminine movement to raise awareness of women’s rights both in the church and in the country. It is time to acknowledge that we are all created equal in God’s image, male and female. "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, “Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons". Peter came to understand the truth and it is time for that truth to be unveiled. It is time to raise awareness of the equality of women, dispense justice and banish ignorance. Honor your father and your mother is a commandment issued from the Mother and Father God who created us. We should not blaspheme the Spirit of God. "Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. Wisdom is supreme . . . This quote is taken from Proverbs and yet the entire Book of Wisdom was banished from the St. James Bible. How long should the world tolerate the banishment of women from an equal standing with men?

Who says a spiritual quest can’t be fun?

COMMUNION OF SAINTS INSPIRED BY ST. THERESE By Anne Urne

“You’ll never guess whose going along with us.” “Who?” she asked wide-eyed. “A PRIEST!” I exclaimed. Susie rolled those big green eyes up and said, “Great”. We ferried to Monte Carlo to rent a car.”

About the Book:

A mystical achievement as St. Therese brings her continuing story of a soul's journey to the pages of this book in an extraordinary adventure. Anne Urne travels the world with her cousin and describes the wondrous presence and help of the saints who come to her aid. You will marvel at the spiritual messages conveyed to her as she communes with the saints and learns that just as St. Therese always believed, heaven can be found on earth and there can be communion with the saints. A truly inspiring message that only the saints could bring and a tribute to the devotion and hard work of dedicated nuns who are responsible for bringing us the greatest spiritual classics.

Guess who came to dinner?

Communion of Saints is racing to a momentus conclusion as more saints and other surprising souls join in the wondrous story. Sister Agnes a/k/a Mother Agnes a/k/a Pauline Martin has arrived! OMG! This is stupendous! For those not familiar with my patron and spiritual guide, St. Therese of Lisieux, let me introduce you to her sister. Pauline Martin became a second mother to Therese Martin, then four years old, when their mother died. Pauline later joined the Carmel convent and took the name Sister Agnes. When Therese joined the convent, Sister Agnes became prioress and Mother Agnes to the sisters of Carmel, including her very own sister, Therese of Lisieux.
Sister Agnes is the one who edited and published the first autobiography of St. Therese, Story of a Soul. She single-handedly brought the beautiful story of this mystic saint to the attention of millions of readers and this book, now distributed in the original text, is still read by millions of spiritual seekers and devotees of St. Therese over a hundred years later.
Welcome, Sister Agnes, I know you are here to continue the story of St. Therese! This is so exciting!

The Book Inspired by St. Therese Coming Soon

Communion of Saints is scheduled to be released early in 2012 and will be premiered at this author's table at the IWPA Tent at the Printers Row Literary Fest in Chicago next June. I am so excited about this book. I have invited the saints to bring their stories to this effort and so far the book includes St. Therese of Lisieux, my patron and spiritual mentor; Mary Magdalene, St. Peter, St. James, St. Jude, St. Francis, St. Angela, St. Francis and St. Michael. My most interesting addition to date is the Irish Saint Brandon the Navigator. I learned that he is the patron saint of sailors, mariners and travelers. This is a wonderful saint for this book as it is told that he voyaged all the way to the place of the saints - Paradise!

This book includes exciting adventures and photos taken by Anne Urne on her visits to the basilica, crypt and grotto of Mary Magdalene in southern France and other adventures that are breathtakingly exciting. Thanks to the saints, a priest that joined them and the steadfast faith that all would turn out well, Anne and her traveling companions made it through the hair raising travels abroad. Welcome St. Brandon!

Sanctus - Great New Novel

Unable to put this book down - and excited that it alludes to a MISSING SISTER . . . . the author doesn't know where the story came from - but was staying in the south of France when he was inspired.  Well, I know -- and my book, Trust Me, contains the secrets that DaVinci Code and the exciting new novel Sanctus only allude to . . .
