Blessed Virgin Mary
and The Office of the Dead
by Angelus Press
The best prayer is the prayer of the Church. Here it is—simpler than the Breviary, but essentially the same. Pray the inspired psalms of the Holy Ghost. Around since the 8th century. Hated by heretics, loved by friends of Our Lady. Recited by Saints John Damascene, Catherine of Siena, Vincent Ferrer, Louis of France, Bridget of Sweden, and many more.
The text of the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Office of the Dead is that of the 1915 Benziger Brothers edition with updated punctuation and slight rewording of some familiar passages in English. The content of the Offices was revised in conformity with the norms of the typical edition of the Roman Breviary published in 1961.
Completely re-typeset with the Latin and English text on facing pages. Angelus Press offers this beautiful edition to the faithful as an eminently readable and truly affordable format. Printed in red and black text. Gold foil stamped, black, flexible softcover with rounded corners.
Flexible softcover, size 6" x 4", 264 pages

The Story of the Blessed Virgin in the Modern World
by Don Sharkey
This unusual book is an attempt to tell the story of the Blessed Virgin in the modern world and this is the most important story of our time! This book gives a complete account of the various well-known, as well as obscure, apparitions of our Lady since 1830.
Writing in a simple, inspiring narrative style, Don Sharkey has given a complete record of these many apparitions in the order of their occurrence and linking their meaning to world conditions. Our Lady is pleading with us to help her save the world from the terrible results of its own sins. The very least we can do is to read her message and to act upon it.
This book will inspire new love for the Blessed Virgin when we realize she leaves her heavenly throne to warn us, to plead with us in order that we reform our lives.

Prayer for Numerous Occasions Seeking the Intercession of the Mother of God.
Edited by Rev. James J. Cashman, C.M.
True devotion to the Blessed Virgin is interior. It must be based upon the high esteem that we have of the Blessed Virgin. It must flow from out understanding of her excellence. It must be inspired by love which we bear for her in our hearts. We need never fear to cast our cares upon Mary, all powerful Mother of God. She is our tender Mother whose great desire is to assist us, to mitigate our sorrows, and to bring us into a closer union with Jesus Christ. This small book will help in that devotion.

by Pierre and Germaine Noury
The first in a trilogy of stories of the saints by the husband and wife duo of Pierre and Germaine Noury, this sweet illustrated tale of the life of the Blessed Virgin is truly a treasure. From her conception to her glorious Assumption and crowning as Queen of Heaven, here is an opportunity to learn to love our dear Mother more than ever before.
It is difficult to describe this book better than Dom Paul Séjourné did in his preface:
“This, then, is the Gospel of Mary. But it is even more: it brings to life the fullness of the Christian faith. Using the plain words of sacred scripture, it weaves a jeweled tapestry. For though the Gospels tell us little of Christ’s mother, we need not deprive ourselves of this poetry simply because those teachings are here enriched by the many beautiful things that have been related by the Fathers of the Church, or by saintly souls to whom Our Lady has revealed her secrets.”
“In weaving together the accounts of Mary’s role in her son’s life as found in the gospels, I hope you will find here all the tenderness and love of Mary’s own heart speaking to you.”
Other titles in this series include: Saint Nicholas: Patron Saint of Children and Saint Francis of Assisi: the Little Poor Man.

The Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Baronius Press
This is the first ever edition that includes the complete Gregorian Chant for the Little Office – in traditional four stave notation! The music for the Little Office has never before been gathered together in one volume. For many people the Gregorian chant of the Little Office offers an introduction to the beauty of the Church's traditional liturgical heritage. This volume will help you sing all the Hours of the Little Office.
Our edition includes a commentary on the rubrics and ceremonial by "A Master of Novices" (which was first published in the early twentieth century), and also includes a description of the indulgences with which the recitation of the Little Office has been enriched by Holy Mother Church.
The Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a shorter form of the Divine Office in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It has long been the Church's daily liturgical prayer to Our Lady, and these hours of praise have been used by Priests, religious and the laity throughout the centuries. Lay people used to flock to the great Cathedrals to publicly recite The Little Office during the Middle Ages, and during the great persecution, when the practice of the Catholic Faith was illegal in Great Britain, Bishop Challoner commended The Little Office to his flock.
Through its psalms, antiphons, readings, responsorials, and prayers the Little Office stresses the role Our Lady played in salvation history, and how through her fiat the divine Word took flesh in her womb and achieved salvation for us all; and how Our Lord granted her the first fruits of the general resurrection in her holy and glorious assumption.
All Catholics are called to a consistent prayer life. For those who do not feel called to recite the Divine Office, but still wish to participate in the liturgical prayer of the Church, or for those who have a particular devotion to the holy Mother of God, there is no finer form of prayer than the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Features include:
- Based on an edition published just after the Reform Act in 1850 (allowing English Catholics to openly practice the Faith).
- English translation uses traditional language – with scripture taken from Bishop Challoner's version of the Douay-Rheims Bible.
- Fully updated to comply with the editio typica of the Breviary (1961).
- The first ever edition to include the complete Gregorian chants for the Little Office.
- Meditations before each hour from the mediaeval Mirror of Our Lady.
- Latin-English, red and black text.
- Psalms from the Vulgate.
- Flexible leather cover with stitched edge, gold gilding, 2 ribbons.

This is a beautifully illustrated book for teachers and parents who want to teach their children true and solid devotion to Mary.
This Marian program has but one purpose, to imbue the little ones with a genuine devotion to Mary. Therefore, it is not intended as a pious practice for May or Octoer. It is rather a copying of Mary- a way of life.
It is the De Montfort Method simplified for young minds.

by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
New Foreword by Fr. Andrew Apostoli. Anniversary Edition.
With his characteristic eloquence and brilliance, Fulton J. Sheen presents a moving portrayal of the Blessed Virgin Mary that combines deep spirituality with history, philosophy and theology. All the major aspects and events of Mary's life are lovingly portrayed in this word portrait that is a never failing source of information, consolation and inspiration. Sheen also gives profound insights into all the Marian beliefs ranging from the Immaculate Conception to the Assumption to the miracle of Our Lady of Fatima. While considering the different phases of Mary's life, Bishop Sheen discusses various problems common to mankind of every age and reveals clearly that every problem can be resolved. He emphasizes the unique dignity, strength and gifts of women and their ability to help heal the world's problems. Sheen stresses mankind's need of the Mother of God and her burning love for all her children. The great resurgence of devotion to Mary is God's way of emphasizing the worth and dignity of every person against the false doctrines that have so confused the modern world.

The Spirit of the Militia Immaculatae according to Fr Maximilian Kolbe
by Fr Karl Stehlin
This book primarily focuses on St. Maximilian Kolbe's life-long apostolate of spreading devotion to Our Immaculate Lady following the method of St. Louis de Montfort. It demonstrates his concern with combatting heresy, liberalism, modernism, Freemasonry and the need to convert heretics and Jews. One of the best features of this book is that Fr. Stehlin continually relates Kolbe's message with the Crisis in the Church...going so far, for example, as to point out how Lumen Gentium makes it nearly impossible for modern Catholics to truly understand the doctrine of this friar-knight of Our Lady.
