Product Description
Many who know of Fr. Donald know him because of his conversion story. He has spoken of it at conferences, on television, radio, online, and wherever he can spread the message. This book finally captures in print how Divine Mercy, through the intercession of the Blessed Mother, touched his life. In his own words, No Turning Back recounts Fr. Donald's personal story of conversion after reading a book about Our Lady. Though today he is a devout Catholic Marian priest, Fr. Donald's early years were no indication of what was to come. Before his conversion to Catholicism, he was a high school dropout who had been kicked out of a foreign country, institutionalized twice and thrown in jail multiple times. Discovering a book on Our Lady led to his conversion and ardent love of Mary and the Church.

An unbelievable TRUE story of CONVERSION, with the true meaning of the word. You know, ..like you "convert", or "change" your money into foreign currency when traveling abroad ...This is one of the most powerful stories of conversion I have ever heard or read.

My 15 year old and my 13 year old asked for this book after hearing Father Calloway give a talk: They couldn't put it down! They loved it! It is written in a style everyone can understand and enjoy. All who read this book will be inspired and blessed. What hope is given by this true story!!!

I heard about Father Calloway from Immaculate Heart Radio. How he fell in love with the Catholic church is so moving. His life is a real testimonial of how a person can change their lives in an instant when they discover the truth about God's loving mercy. His love for Mother Mary is also so touching. She actually led him to the faith and eventually even to the priesthood. After reading this book, I passed it on to my boyfriend. I hope and pray Father Calloway's story can deepen his faith.

I'm 18 and about to go to college. I loved this book because of all the struggles he went through, he rode over them to become a priest through the help of Jesus Christ. This is an excellent gift idea for any age above 14 I'd say, and it's so EASY TO READ and the guy's down to earth. Love it!
Great Read. A great story for anyone trying to turn their life around. June 26, 2010

I just finished this book and read it in just two sittings. I just couldn't put it down. As a parent of an 18 yr old boy who is struggling (albeit at a much lesser level) it was encouraging to hear about such a dramatic and abrubt transformation from struggling teenager to someone who loves life again. On a personal level one of the most comforting things I heard Father Calloway say was towards the end of the book on how he still struggles temptation each day and is by no way a saint, but works hard everyday to live the life Christ's asks us. Thank you for telling your story. I thought the book was very well written and certainly inspirational. Hollywood would have people flocking to the theatres with a well made adaptation of this story. BUY THIS BOOK.
