From the Visions of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich
This is fourth volume in a set that records the visions of the famous 19th-century Catholic mystic, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, a nun who was privileged by God to behold innumerable events of biblical times, going back all the way to the creation of the world. She witnessed the fall of the Angels; the sin of Adam; Noah and the Flood; and the lives of St. John the Baptist, St. Anne, St. Joseph, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and St. Mary Magdalen. In these accounts, what shines through most is the indelible, infinite love of God for all mankind.
Anne Catherine's visions also included the birth, life, public ministry, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, as well as the founding of His Church. Besides describing persons, places, events, and traditions in intimate detail, Anne Catherine Emmerich also sets forth the mystical significance of these visible realities. Here is the infinite love of God incarnate and made manifest for all to see, made all the more striking and vivid by the accounts Blessed Anne has relayed.
The Life of Jesus Christ and Biblical Revelations: From the Visions of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich is beyond doubt one of the most extraordinary books ever published, simply because it is the story of the Bible and the Gospels, but elucidated in the most vivid manner since the Four Evangelists themselves. May it bring much fruit to your meditation.

A Spiritual Bouquet for each day of the year. 366 inspiring New Testament quotes. Not by bread alone does man live, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. (Mt. 4:4)
64pp. vinyl cover. pocket size.
by Sister James Stanislaus
An innovative series of three readers which interprets the events of the Gospel by organizing them into various journeys. To quote the preface, "...the author follows the footsteps of the Messias from the time He leaves His home in Nazareth for the first time, on His public mission, and presents in a series of ten journeys the events of His Life."
The first volume takes us from Jesus' baptism, the calling of His disciples, and the wedding at Cana, through various journeys in Galilee (the north country of Israel) and Judea (the south, surrounding Jerusalem), including His Sermon on the Mount.
In the second volume, Jesus' ministry takes him into the pagan provinces of Phoenicia, Decapolis, Caesarea Philippi, as well as Samaria and the land beyond the Jordan. Here we encounter His Transfiguration on Mt. Tabor and hear his many parables. This volume ends on the threshold of His final journey...
The third volume then begins with Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, His final days in the Holy City, His Passion and Death, and His glorious Resurrection and Ascension into heaven.
The narratives are constructed using the language of scripture, descriptions of the places visited, and questions for study at the end of each section. Each volume also includes maps, a glossary which provides pronunciations of the various words and places, and plentiful black and white illustrations modeled after the Gospel illustrations of Alexandre Bida (1813-1895), who spent many years of study in the Holy Land.

Thirty-Six Sketches
by Msgr Francis J Weber
Recently retired from over fifty years of service to God and to the people of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, Monsignor Weber has allowed us to publish some of the delightful, insightful, and very succinct homilies he has given on real and literary characters found in the holy gospels.
The four gospels tell us the story of Jesus Christ, Son of God and Son of Man, the Savior of the world. In the course of those gospels, Jesus Christ tells us many stories that reveal God the Father’s loving plan for our salvation. Through the homilies collected here Monsignor Francis Weber does what a good preacher always does, that is, he points out the spiritual truth the gospels reveal, and then connects that truth with our own faith and daily experiences as disciples of Jesus Christ.
By “real characters” Monsignor Weber indicates the real life men and women whom Jesus met and engaged during his life and ministry, such as Peter and Paul and Pontius Pilate. “Literary characters” are the imaginary figures in Christ’s parables, such as the Prodigal Son and the Good Samaritan.
Contents include:
| Zachariah and Elizabeth | Sons of Thunder | The Prodigal Son | Judas Iscariot | Simon of Cyrene |
| The Magi | The Apostles | A Widow and Her Mite | John the Beloved | Dismas, The Good Thief |
| Simeon | Thomas the Doubter | Bartimaeus | A King and a Marriage Feast | Nicodemus |
| Mary | Rich Man and Lazarus | Good Samaritan | Joseph of Arimathea | Barrabas |
| John the Baptist | Young Man Whom Jesus Loved | Adulterous Woman | Mary Magdalen | |
| Peter, the Prince & Vicar | Peter and Paul | Mary, Mother of God | Herod Antipas | |
| The Householder | A Leper | Martha | Pontius Pilate | |
| Peter the Rock | Woman of the Streets | Zacchaeus | Veronica |
Paperback, size 8.5" x 5.5", 80 pages
by Benedict R. Avery, O.S.B.
The life of every Christian soul on it’s pilgrimage through this vale of tears must be fed primarily on two foods. The origin of these two foods is the two trees in the Eden of our first parents, of which trees one was allowed to their use and one was forbidden. The Tree of Life was intended to feed the life that God had breathed into Adam and Eve. We now have a replacement for the food of that tree. That food is God Himself as the Bread of Life in the Eucharist. Adam’s disobedience regarding the command not to eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was the cause of mankind’s fall from grace. Now that man knows of evil, God has given us something to teach us to distinguish the evil from the good. Of this tree we also have a new bread to eat, as Jesus himself told us, “Not by bread alone (temporal bread) doth man live, but by every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.” The word of God is two things, scripture and Jesus—especially in the Eucharist. These two foods are essential to us to sustain our life of grace that will, hopefully, lead us to eternal life.
Daily reading in the scriptures is the best way for a Christian to partake of this bread that God has given us. On Palm Sunday, 1978, Brother Francis gave us this daily schedule. Some have followed it ever since, and can testify to the sweetness and depth that this practice can bring to one’s spiritual life.
Douay Rheims version of the English bible as the very best translation available from which to read scripture. It corresponds more accurately to the original Vulgate than any of the more recent translations and the language is most beautiful.

Cornelius a'Lapide's Commentary on St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans
Original translation from the Latin text of the Commentary of Cornelius aLapide on the Book of Romans by Michael Miller
This book starts with a 49 page introduction on St. Paul: his wisdom, style of writing, virtues, preaching, martyrdom, and miracles.
This is followed by aLapide's collected commentary on the book of Romans, chapter by chapter.
Included in the book is the Rheims New Testament text for the Letter to the Romans.
Sample Text:
WHO WAS St. PAUL?
WHAT KIND OF A MAN, AND HOW GREAT?
Eight gifts and extraordinary prerogatives should be considered and admired in S. Paul. First, his honourable descent and talent; second, his marvellous vocation and grace; third, his uncommon wisdom; fourth, his heroic virtues; fifth, his efficacious, fruitful evangelization; sixth, his illustrious martyrdom; seventh, his miracles, and eighth, his fame and glory.

or The Church of the Parables
by Fr Joseph Prachensky, S.J.
Never have you heard the parables of Our Lord explained like this learned American Jesuit did in 1890 when this work was first published. Here, in his own words from the introduction, is the author’s reason for publishing this magnificent work:
The bible tells us it was given to the Apostles to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven either in parables or plain words. If that was so (and who will doubt it?), who has it now? And to whom is it given, if not to their legitimate successors, who were to continue the work which the Apostles had begun, even to the consummation of ages?
If, then, the kind reader of these pages finds in them a more accurate, faithful, and thorough explanation of our Lord’s parables than he ever received from any sectarian preacher, let him bear in mind that the bishops and priests of the Catholic Church are the legitimate and only true successors of those to whom the Saviour said: “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.”
I have selected for exposition only those of the parables that relate to Catholic dogmas controverted by the sects, and I pass over those which contain only lessons of morality never impugned or denied by any one bearing the name of Christian, at least in theory.
