Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commissioned for the Marian Year in 1988, The Virgin Mary in the Marionite Church is the definitive work on Mary for Marionite Catholics. The Marionite image of Mary is complete in Catholic dogma and true to all references of her from Sacred Scriptures. By means of the Marionite Liturgy and the Church's devotions to her, Mary becomes once again for Marionites "mother", as she was to John when Jesus gave her to his care at the foot of the Cross. This book will lead readers to a greater appreciation and love for Mary from Scripture and Tradition, as beautifully woven together in Marionite prayer and devoition.
