Brother Roberto, C.S.C. The Face in the Flames- A Story of Saint Bridget of Sweden
Mary's Books 1616700483 New
In 1310 when Bridget was about 7 years old, she began having visions that would continue throughout her life. In 1316, she married a Swedish nobleman, who was deeply religious like herself. One of their daughters became Saint Catherine of Sweden. When Bridget became a widow in 1344, she had a vision of her late husband. He told her that she could help shorten his purgatory by having Masses said and by giving alms to the poor. Reading this story can encourage us to follow in the footsteps of Saint Bridget of Sweden, who humbly followed God's promptings and was always generous to those in need.

Caryll Houselander Catholic Tales for Boys & Girls
Sophia Institute Press 2002 1928832741 New 154 pages Renee George
Caryll Houselander is best known for the intensity of her vision of the suffering Christ and His immeasurable love for us, a theme that she frequently spoke of with breathtaking luminosity in her many books about Him. Few know, however, of the many remarkable stories she wrote for Catholic children — delightful tales that are simple but not shallow. Indeed, like her books for adults, they manifest a tender love of Christ and His little ones not commonly found among us these days. Here are twelve of Houselander’s best tales, charmingly illustrated with Renée George’s lively drawings of pirates and princesses, castles and kings. Through the tale of Jack and Jim, even young children will grasp the meaning of Christ’s suffering; in Racla the Gypsy, they’ll discover the charity which is at the heart of the Eucharist; in the The Curé’s Guest, they’ll see how Christ makes up for the sins of others. All the stories touch on Catholic themes, but these tales are not really catechetical. Yes, they do take for granted that Catholicism — especially prayer and the Mass — plays a large role in the lives of these children, but they do something more . . . and more important. Tale after tale introduces children to the tender love that Jesus has for each of them, and to the fire of love for Him that can burn in the hearts of Catholics — even in the hearts of little ones like themselves. There is no better gift you can give to a young child.

Compiled by Mary Frances Lester Devtion to the Holy Face
The devotion to the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ and particularly to His Holy Face is one of the oldest in the Christian tradition. This venerable devotion was practiced by such great saints as St. Augustine of Hippo, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, St. Gertrude the Great, St. Mechtilde, St. Edmund, St. Bonaventure and St. Therese of Lisieux. Beginning in 1844, Our Lord appeared to Sr. Mary of St. Peter and expressed His desire that whole world should know and practice this devotion in reparation for man s blasphemy. Through the efforts of Sr. Mary St. Peter, Ven. Leo DuPont and countless others, this devotion has become one of the most loved, and remains one of the most needed in our time. Eternal Father, we offer Thee the Adorable Face of Thy Well Beloved Son for the honor and glory of Thy Holy Name and for the salvation of all men. Prayer of Pope Blsd. Pius IX

Diane Moczar Seven Lies About Catholic History
2010 0895559064 New 189 pages
The world hates the Church that Jesus founded, just as He said it would (John 15:18). It reviles her doctrines, mocks her moral teachings and invents lies about her history. In every age, but especially in our modern day, historians and political powers have distorted the facts about her past (or just made up novel falsehoods from scratch) to make the Church, and the civilization it fostered, seem corrupt, backward, or simply evil. In Seven Lies about Catholic History, Diane Moczar (Islam at the Gates) tackles the most infamous and prevalent historical myths about the Church popular legends that you encounter everywhere from textbooks to T.V. and reveals the real truth about them. She explains how they got started and why they re still around, and best of all, she gives you the facts and the arguments you need to set the record straight about: The Inquisition: how it was not a bloodthirsty institution but a merciful (and necessary) one Galileo s trial : why moderns invented a myth around it to make science appear incompatible with the Catholic faith (it s not) The Reformation: why the 16th-century Church was not totally corrupt (as even some Catholics wrongly believe), and how the reformers made things worse for everybody and other lies that the world uses to attack and discredit the Faith. Written in a brisk style that s fun and easy to read, Seven Lies about Catholic History provides the lessons that every Catholic needs in order to defend and explain not just apologize for the Church s rich and complex history.

Dom Gueranger The Medal or Cross of Saint Benedict :The Origin, Meaning and Privileges
Loreto Publication 2007 1930278217 New
How fitting it is that Abbot Dom Gueranger, the modern paragon of filial devotion to the father of western monasticism, should be the one to promote this humble tribute to the Saint Benedict Medal. One of the nineteenth century's most feared opponents of the Luciferian revolt against Catholic altars and thrones, the holy Abbot found time to pen this humble accolade to a seemingly insignificant effigy stamped on an almond size cut of metal. Surely this gifted man had more important things to do? When we assume that incessant pious labors, meritorious as they are, are of more spiritual might than the promotion of modest insignia of inanimate sacramentals we are not being childlike. God can use the meanest things to confound the proud. What may appear to the sophisticated as a superstitious talisman, if venerated with Faith and confidence (con fides), has proved many times to be powerfully efficacious. Gueranger wrote this diminutive compendium on the medal of Saint Benedict with high hopes of vesting every soldier of Christ with a visible shield that would reflect the invisible armor of God and the breastplate of justice.

Marie Carre' AA-1025 The Memoirs of An Anti-Apostle
Tan Books & Publishers, Inc 1991 New
Memoirs of a Communist injured in an auto accident in France; he died in the hospital a few hours later. The nurse who attended him kept his journals, read them and published them as AA-1025. He had become a Catholic priest to subvert the Church from within. Describes his methods & plans. Says there were many more like him. Very enlightening! (A very holy priest gave me this book to read many years ago...the only thing I could say is, I was blown away by it. Fifty yrs. ago in Ireland my friend's Mother told her about these events so when she read the book it was an affirmation of her mother's words. After I read this book I was given "Unicorn in the Sanctuary", and these two books ignited a fire within me to defend our true Catholic faith. These were two books that turned me from an "oh hum" Catholic into a warrior for our faith. (Flo) Paperback pp.135
