The Cure of Ars and the Holy Eucharist
Add to cart


THE CURE OF ARS AND THE HOLY EUCHARIST
St John Vianney. This inspiring book is a collection from biographies, sermons, local traditions, and unpublished documents that reflect the Saint's doctrine on the Blessed Sacrament. If it be true that the mystery of the Eucharist becomes clearer in our thoughts by striking analogies with the feelings of man's heart, what will its resplendence be when set forth to us by the heart of a saint? And this heart being that of the Cure' of Ars, so pure, so intuitive, so loving, how can ours, however cold it be, fail to be rekindled by contact with such a flame?
It will be clearly seen in the course of reading this book that the Cure' of Ars had a passion for the Eucharist. This book is a treasure from the heart of the holiest priest of modern times. In reading it, a multitude of souls will very soon discern throughout these pages "that voice of the heart" of which a poet speaks, "which alone reaches the heart." Hardback - 164 pages.

Go to Joseph

GO TO JOSEPH
Benedictine Sisters. Frequently those who love us and would like to confer benefits upon as are unable to do so. Not so with St. Joseph. The omnipotent Son of God, Who on earth called him "Father," and in His heavenly kingdom ranks him next to Mary, gave to St. Joseph more power than to any other saint in heaven. The power of St. Joseph, like that of the Mother of God, is in a certain sense, an omnipotent power, the power of a pleading omnipotence, for Our Lord refuses him nothing that he asks. Jesus is happy to receive his petitions, and to grant them. It seems as though in heaven He still wishes to be subject to His foster father, as during His earthly life. He permits St. Joseph to take from His Divine treasury with full hands in order to give to souls the treasures of Divine grace and mercy, like Joseph, the son of Jacob, who took corn from the granaries of the king of Egypt to feed his brethren and all who had recourse to him. From the heights of heaven, the King of glory speaks to us the same words as Pharaoh to the starving people of Egypt: "Go to Joseph!" Includes the Dignity, Sanctity and Glory of St. Joseph; St. Joseph's Position in the Plan of Redemption; St. Joseph's Position in the Church; The Dignity of St. Joseph; The Sanctity of St. Joseph; St. Joseph's Supreme Glory in Heaven. Paperback - 69 pages.
