by Fr. Patrick Troadec
“The best way to celebrate the saints is to imitate them. Why not try to live as they did, if only for one day, their day, the day consecrated and blessed by the Church, when they are ‘on duty’ to help us?”—Monsignor Ghika
This book of daily meditations is the third volume released in a four-volume series entitled Praying with the Saints by Season: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn. These books serve as a brief daily guide to following in the footsteps of the saints through the liturgical year as well as on our life-long journey to eternity. The example of a new saint everyday will surely direct and motivate souls to a deeper union with God and a habitual higher level of sanctity.
Begin your day with the following inspiration:
• Life of the Saint
• Brief Meditation
• Prayers
• Thoughts
• Invocations
• and Three Resolutions to aid in concrete, daily, spiritual growth.
If you are looking for a way to integrate prayer or spiritual reading into your daily life or want a daily reminder that sanctity is not only achievable but in fact our sole purpose here on earth then this is a series for you. Short, profound, daily meditations on the saints and the liturgical year by best-selling author Fr. Patrick Troadec.

Letters to an Altar Boy
Letters to an Altar Boy
by Fr David E. Rosage
This is a book of letters for all altar boys who, from the smallest one up, are the most important people in their parishes. God's Minutemen is what the author affectionately calls them, for he knows that they are always ready for duty as altar boys, no matter what the personal cost. The author writes this book with the hope that in these letters all acolytes may find encouragement to continue being loyal and faithful in their service of our Lord. Father Rosage shows them that while serving Mass is the greatest honor and the biggest job in the parish, it does demand sacrifice. He knows that being on call for duty isn't always easy, and he aims at convincing the boys who have to get up on cold winter mornings to serve early Mass of the great privilege that is theirs.
Written in an easy flowing style intelligible to even the very young boys, the book is full of helpful pointers about the correct manner of serving, the necessity of being on time, and many other details on which a boy may slip. It offers inspiration and high motivation for living up to the ideals that a Mass server is committed to follow. An extremely practical book, it leaves not one phase of the altar boy's life untouched. . .

The Mass for Children & Our Sacraments Hardcover Set
The Mass for Children and
Our Sacraments
by Msgr William Kelly
This charming pair of Catholic children’s classics have been carefully reprinted from the original 1925 and 1927 editions in a matching hardback set.
The Mass For Children
This little book gives an explanation of the Mass that is both inspirational and easy-to-understand.
“The author of this wonderful little book has devised a plan which rends the veil and simplifies all necessary explanations. He knows how to approach the mind and heart of a child. He uses this gifted insight in presenting to the child the sublime drama of the Mass in a most appealing way. The language is simple, the explanations numerous and complete, the stories apt and compelling, and the pictures superb and arising naturally from the text.
This book should hold first place on the list of supplementary readers. Better still, it will serve as an instructive prayer-book during the Mass. It will make the Holy Sacrifice better known and better loved by children. Adults too, will read it with interest and with profit, and will regret that it did not come earlier in their lives.” -Joseph Smith, Superintendent of Catholic Schools, 1925
Hardcover with colour illustrations, size 7" x5.5", 64 pages
Our Sacraments
This wholesome children’s book consists of a series of stories that illustrate the layers of meaning and symbolism in the sacraments. The author himself describes the book to children in the following way:
“My Dear Boys and Girls, When Our Lord was here on earth He helped people to understand His teachings by telling them stories. Now in this little book there are stories that will help you. They will help you understand what the Church teaches about the seven wonderful sacraments. As you read the stories and look at the pictures, you will see for yourselves what the sacraments are and what they do, and your catechism lessons will, I hope, be made easier and more interesting.” -Father Kelly, Feast of the Ascension, 1927

His Own Received Him Not
His Own Received Him Not
by J.K. Wittbrodt
“Studying the history of the English Reformation can help us to see how a handful of people—educated, well-positioned and imbued with revolutionary ideology—can force unwanted and destructive changes onto a peaceful nation by using their political power, propaganda, agitation and stirring up riotous mobs of big cities. It happened numerous times during the history of mankind. It always brought about huge economic losses and the murder of a large number of innocent citizens of the society in which the turmoil was instigated by the revolutionary activists.” - J.K. Wittbrodt, Author’s Note
“This book is about those who gave their life for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, saints who were outlawed, mocked and hated by the ruling elite of their times. Their great conflict was played out in prison, in torture chambers and on the scaffold. They gained victory by witnessing to the Catholic dogma of the Mass as a bloodless sacrifice and Christ’s Real Presence in the Eucharist. Most of them were priests, fugitive in their homeland, who were caught by the pursuivants while saying Mass. Others were lay men and women attending the banned Catholic worship or hiding hunted priests. Some of them were bishops who first fell into schism with Henry VIII due to their cowardice but redeemed themselves during the reign of Edward VI and Elizabeth I by standing up for Catholic dogmas, especially for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. May the example of these saintly English heroes increase our devotion to the Holy Sacrifice of the Altar in our troubled times plagued by disbelief in the sacrificial nature of the Mass and irreverence towards the Blessed Eucharist.” -J.K. Wittbrodt, Author’s Note
This stunning book is a fascinating and essential read for all Catholics of today. Much is to be learned from these heroes who not only kept the Faith but spread it in spite of an anti-catholic government who sought their destruction at all times and at every turn. A must-have for every catholic library.

The Ottaviani Intervention
The Ottaviani Intervention
A Brief Critical Study of the New Order of Mass
by Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani, Antonio Cardinal Bacci and a group of Roman Theologians
A RESPONSE TO ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL MOMENTS IN THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH
"It is evident that the Novus Ordo has no intention of presenting the faith as taught by the Council of Trent, to which, nonetheless, the Catholic conscience is bound forever. With the promulgation of the Novus Ordo, the loyal Catholic is thus faced with a most tragic alternative."
This statement, made with absolute and definitive clarity, from Section VI of the Ottaviani Intervention, was made in response to what might be considered one of the most critical moments in the history of the Catholic Church since the original Pentecost Sunday, the traditional worship of the Roman Church was about to be replaced.
The issue of the ongoing litugical revolution in the Catholic Church became critical on April 28, 1969, when Paul VI announced the Novus Ordo Missae. It was the last chance for action within the traditional channels of ecclesiastical authority. Somehow the pope had to be dissuaded from implementing this substitute for the traditional Catholic Mass of the Roman Rite. This attempt, ultimately unsuccessful, was done in A Critical Study of the New Order of Mass...or what has become known as the "Ottaviani Intervention."

The Woman Who Was Magdalen
The Woman Who Was Magdalen
by Fr Pius Cavanagh, O.P.
Shrouded in 2,000 years of history, the woman we know as St. Mary Magdalen has been honored by Catholics around the world. But who was she? Few have been so privileged to approach Christ, even in penance, as this glorious saint. It was she who proclaimed the Resurrection to the Apostles after having been the first to the tomb. It was she who stood at the foot of the cross next to the Mother of God, who twice anointed Christ, and sat at His feet.
Noble, rich, and possessing strong personal beauty, charm, and conviction, her story radiates through time. All who read it are illumined while being left with the conviction that here indeed is a woman who has earned the title, “Masterpiece of God’s Grace.”
Her inspiring story unfolds from the first moment of meeting Christ and continues throughout her earthly existence. This account of Mary’s life is a compilation of the writings of many saints, from whose works the author weaves an inspiring story that holds much for the modern reader.
St. Augustine, St. Albert, St. Cyprian, St. Catherine, St. Gregory, Ven. Bede, St. Basil, and St. Bernard are just a few of the monumental saints of history who have written her story and whose words of praise for her are contained herein. They learned that while we as Catholics must offer penance and prayer for past sins and gratitude for blessings, it is not enough to satisfy what God wants of us. The sustaining motivation of our life is the absolute certainty that Christ loves us completely and therefore should be loved to the fullest extent of our abilities in return.
This little volume will assist those looking for the strength and conviction to live a life inspired by Christ’s love and who, like Mary Magdalen, wish to return to Him the endless love Our Lord has for our souls.

Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Comic)
Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary
by Fr. Manousos
Originally published by the Catechetical Guild in the 1950's, this is the "comic" book companion to The Life of Christ. Both illustrated by Addison Burbank in full color.
The book presents the life of Mary in an engrossing full color "comic"-style format.

Mother Love
Mother Love
A Manual for Christian Mothers
by a Priest of the Capuchin Order
"What on God's good earth is more glorious than this; to be a mother?"
With these words, Cardinal Mindzenty, summed up the glories of maternity, ordered toward the creation of new saints for the kingdom of God. And yet, the life of the mother is not an easy one. Between helping her husband, caring for her children, trips to school, the doctor, the grocery store, not to mention housework, cooking, and more, the life of a mother can lose it's proper focus: the glory of God. Add to this an increasingly hostile modern world who thinks little of mothers and offers little help and support and the situation is overwhelming.
To help Catholic mothers sanctify themselves in their state in life, and through that, to sanctify their homes as well, we have printed the original, unadulterated version of Mother Love, a complete prayer and devotional book, just for moms!
Originally written in the late 1800s by a priest of the Capuchin order, this "manual for Christian mothers" contains:
It contains almost everything a mother needs to nurture and grow her spiritual life, so that through their sanctification they may sanctify their husbands and children, and truly become the heart of the Catholic home.

Know Your Mass
Know Your Mass
by Fr. Manousos
Originally published by the Catechetical Guild in 1954 (Imprimatur Francis Cardinal Spellman), this is a "comic" book unlike any other. Know Your Mass is a detailed, fully illustrated, step by step explanation of the Traditional Latin Mass now reprinted for the first time in full color!
The book presents the theology of the Mass in a manner easily understood by children and yet is incredibly interesting and informative for adults as well. This should come as no surprise to those who have read The Seven Sacraments, another Angelus Press reprint by Fr. Manousos, who has the amazing ability to take solid theology and present it to children...without dumbing it down. He was truly a gifted writer.
This makes Know Your Mass an excellent catechetical tool for all ages. All parts of the Holy Sacrifice are covered, from the preparation for Mass, the altar, sacred vessels and vestments, liturgical actions, the sanctuary, and some liturgical history as well, including helpful suggestions for children to get the most or should we say GIVE the most at Mass. Ideal, NO, PERFECT, as a First Holy Communion gift. Great for converts as well.
Anyone who delves into this book cannot come away ignorant of the true significance of the liturgical representation of Our Lord's Sacrifice on Calvary that is the Holy Mass. Highly recommended.

This makes Know Your Mass an excellent catechetical tool for all ages. All parts of the Holy Sacrifice are covered, from the preparation for Mass, the altar, sacred vessels and vestments, liturgical actions, the sanctuary, and some liturgical history as well, including helpful suggestions for children to get the most or should we say GIVE the most at Mass. Ideal, NO, PERFECT, as a First Holy Communion gift. Great for converts as well.
Anyone who delves into this book cannot come away ignorant of the true significance of the liturgical representation of Our Lord's Sacrifice on Calvary that is the Holy Mass. Highly recommended.

Synodality: An Attack on Papal Authority
Synodality: An Attack on Papal Authority
Acts of the 17th Theological Congress of Courrier de Rome
by Various Priests
The Crisis of Doctrine and Papal Supremacy in the Modern Church
Today’s current situation in the Church shows the same modernist goal seen in liturgical changes like the New Mass: it undermines the very purposes it claims to support. To further this point, bishops worldwide increasingly question papal authority and doctrine, working consciously or unconsciously to subvert both.
Before the recent push for Synodality, the principal challenge to papal primacy came through Collegiality, which is an attempt to democratize ecclesiastical authority. This has now evolved into something more radical: the democratization of doctrine itself.
Synodality is a democratic revolution that transforms the Catholic Church’s hierarchical structure into Protestant-style roundtable governance that undermines papal primacy while forcing doctrinal adaptation to modern political sensibilities.
This book brilliantly dissects synodality’s errors through step-by-step explanations of where it went wrong and how. It is a crucial aid to navigating the murky waters of the Synodal Way and understanding why Catholic doctrine — and the papal primacy protecting it — cannot be changed. This volume is a must-read work for all, especially those wanting to understand the current religious conflicts that beset Holy Mother Church.

Novena to Saint Joseph
Novena to Saint Joseph
Patron of the Universal Church
by Fr. Louis Lallemant, SJ
Saint Joseph is patron of the Universal Church. He therefore has a special interest in the needs of all. In Nazareth, the Son of God was subject to him as His foster father. In heaven St. Joseph’s prayers and requests are regarded by Christ as “commands.”
This form of novena was originally devised by the celebrated Fr. Louis Lallemant, S.J. (1587-1633). It has proved particularly effective in obtaining favors through the intercession of St. Joseph. This saintly priest and great master of the spiritual life, to whom St. Joseph never refused anything he asked, ensures those that make this novena that they will obtain everything they ask through the intercession of this great saint if, in turn, they will show him special honor and spread devotion to him among others.

On the Just Punishment of Heretics
On the Just Punishment of Heretics
by Fr Alfonso de Castro, O.F.M.
An important manual of Catholic discipline. Available for the first time in English, On the Just Punishment of Heretics is an important manual of Catholic doctrine and discipline. Author Alfonso de Castro’s scholarly contribution establishes the principles and historical precedent for identifying, distinguishing, and addressing heretics and heresy. This work is an essential tool for those wishing to defend the Faith from compromise and falsity. It is as applicable today as it was indispensable for the Catholics of the 16th century.
Book I
The first book discusses heretics, who they are, and how they ought to be admonished correctly so that they might first acknowledge their error and then return to the path of truth.
Book II
The second book focuses on those heretics who adhere to their heresies even after admonishment from Holy Mother Church. It also discusses the appropriate punishments due to such persons.
Book III
The third book shows ways to prevent heresies, including the duty of prelates and civil leaders to use their respective powers to prevent the spread of heresy. Those who ignore this duty impose upon themselves the ignominy of laxity and slothfulness.
As modern heresies and heretics continue to multiply, it is necessary to own reliable manuals that summarize, explain, and refute as many historical heresies and heretics as possible so that we might recognize and avoid their descendants in the future.
