My Daily Visit with the Saints
by Charles Kenny
My Daily Visit with the Saints is a compilation of meditations from the writings of saints and servants of God.
These holy men and women — over 65 contributors! — wrote from the time of the Apostles to the late 1800s during times before political correctness had taken root. Their words are boldly faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church, and are sure to guide you in her ways. In fact, these meditations cover 139 vital topics ranging from anger to mortal sin to death and much more. In strong, clear voices the saints left us these prayerful meditations, sure protection against sudden temptations, and lucid answers to sharp questions about the Faith. In a word, this one rich volume will serve you as a deep catechism, a spur to conscience, and a call to prayer.
How often do you find time to read the saints' writings? My Daily Visit with the Saints makes it easy to stay close to the holy men and women who have gone before you. Let your daily visit with God's faithful servants breathe into you a strong new spirit of piety and devotion, and bring you the everlasting consolation known only to those who stay close to Jesus in all that they do.

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.

St. Cyprian's Explanation of the Our Father
St. Cyprian's Explanation of the Our Father
Translated by W. Patrick Donnelly, S.J.
Cyprian’s treatise is an integral part of our Catholic heritage from the earliest days of the infant Church - a real gem which has been too long neglected. In addition to being the earliest, the best, the simplest, and the most complete exposition of the Our Father which we possess, Cyprian’s dogmatic and devotional treatise also carries us back, in a sympathetic realization of union, to the very first days of our Catholic forebears.
Paperback, size 8" x 5", 94 page book, Impr 1953.
