The Golden Arrow
The Golden Arrow
The Autobiography and Revelations of Sister Mary of St. Peter (1816-1848) on Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus
by Sister Mary of Saint Peter
Born in 1816 in Brittany, France, Sister Mary of Saint Peter lost her mother at age 12. Soon after entering the Carmelite convent at Tours in 1839 at age 23, she began to receive remarkable and intimate communications from Our Lord, Who told her of His great distressed over the evil actions and blasphemous declarations of the Marxist revolutionaries of the time. He also bemoaned the indifference to and profanation of Sunday and Holy Days of Obligation of even Christians. These errors, begun in Sister Mary's time, have grown monstrously ingrained in our present fearful age.
But the Lord provided Sister Mary over a century and a half ago with the means of fighting these catastrophes and making solemn reparation: devotion to His Holy Face. In addition, He gave her a prayer, a "Golden Arrow" fit to pierce His Heart delightfully, in reparation for the painful "poison arrows" of blasphemy launched by so many poor sinners, even children.
The Golden Arrow tells of both the life of Sister Mary of Saint Peter and her life's work: the devotion, granted to her by Jesus Himself, to His Holy Face. Approved by Pope Leo XIII and promoted by St. Therese of Lisieux half a century later, the devotion to the Holy Face may be the single most important devotion of our time that still remains relatively unknown.
In our age so sorely afflicted by the same grievous errors as Sister Mary of Saint Peter's, learn to adore Our Blessed Saviour's wounded Face, so as to make reparation for the sacrileges and blasphemies of our decadent age.
May the most Holy, most Sacred, most Adorable,
Most Incomprehensible and Ineffable Name of God
Be always Praised, Blessed, Loved, Adored and Glorified,
In Heaven, on Earth and in Hell,
By all the Creatures of God,
And by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
In the most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Amen.

The Devotion of the Holy Rosary and the Five Scapulars
The Devotion of the Holy Rosary and the Five Scapulars
by Fr Michael Mueller C.SS.R
The Holy Rosary is a gift from the Blessed Virgin Mary, as are her powerful scapulars. This is the theme Father Michael Muller stresses throughout these two hundred and seventy-five pages of grateful acclamation to a devotion upon which the salvation of great multitudes of sinners rests. The heartfelt recitation of the Rosary and meditation on the mysteries thereof is the best thank you we can give to Mary for her unfathomable mercies. The scholarly author expounds upon every aspect of this devotion now over eight hundred years old. He relates it wonderfully to the New Testament as well as to the Old. Every single page of this pious work is replete with holy quotations or exciting analogies, inspiring anecdotes or miracles. And, too, there are enough actual accounts of graces spurned, or false, even superstitious devotion, to make us fearful. This is a book that the faithful will love so much that they will feel compelled to share their gift with wayward friends and relatives.

The Rosary with Archbishop Lefebvre
by Fr Patrick Troadec
"One cannot think about the Eucharist without thinking about the Blessed Virgin Mary, because if she had not pronounced her fiat, we would not have the Holy Eucharist.

So, let us ask the Most Blessed Virgin Mary to give us this love that she so admired in her Son Jesus." - Archbishop Lefebvre on the Joyful Mysteries

If you are seeking a better understanding of the Rosary, to integrate this prayer into your daily schedule, or to develop a deeper level of Faith through the study of its mysteries, this book is for you.

The Roman Ritual
The Roman Ritual
In Latin & English with Rubrics and Plainchant Notation
Vol 1: The Sacraments & Processions;
Vol 2: Christian Burial, Exorcism, Reserved Blessings, etc.;
Vol 3: The Blessings
An exact reprint of 1945-1952 imprimatur edition.
This traditional ritual is unique since it is in Latin with an English translation. Moreover, there is an extensive commentary on many of the sacraments and ceremonies. The actual texts for the prayers are printed in black and the rubrics are red. A ribbon is included in each of the volumes. The sturdy hardback binding should last for many years of use by members of the clergy when administering the sacraments or performing the ceremonies involved. These are liturgical books, in that sense. The books are printed with real ink, properly sewn so that the pages do not come out and they are bound in imitation leather, each volume is a different color. We did add a supplement in volume 2 since it did not include the “Litany of the Precious Blood.” The other official litanies are included, but this last litany was promulgated in 1960 so it didn’t find its way into the original printing.

Vol 2: Christian Burial, Exorcism, Reserved Blessings, etc.;
Vol 3: The Blessings
An exact reprint of 1945-1952 imprimatur edition.
This traditional ritual is unique since it is in Latin with an English translation. Moreover, there is an extensive commentary on many of the sacraments and ceremonies. The actual texts for the prayers are printed in black and the rubrics are red. A ribbon is included in each of the volumes. The sturdy hardback binding should last for many years of use by members of the clergy when administering the sacraments or performing the ceremonies involved. These are liturgical books, in that sense.

Devotion to the Sacred Heart
Devotion to the Sacred Heart
by The Benedictine Convent of Clyde
Devotion to the Sacred Heart is a powerful little booklet filled with many of the treasures to be found in the veneration of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Besides containing an explanation of the symbolism found within the Image of the Sacred Heart, it also includes explanations of the 9 First Fridays devotion, known as the Great Promise, and the miraculous cure of St. Gemma Galgani, as well as many profound exhortations to offer reparation to the Sacred Heart.
Our Lord instituted this authoritative and moving devotion Himself, saying, "I set neither limit nor measure to My gifts of grace for those who seek them in My heart."
In our age of religious indifference, when fervor and charity have grown cold, Jesus exhibits to the world His Sacred Heart as the symbol of God's infinite love showing His Divine Heart as a furnace whose burning rays of love are able to reanimate faith and rekindle love in hearts grown cold and ungrateful.

Holy Souls Book
Reflections on Purgatory
A Complete Prayer book
Including Special Prayers and Devotions in Behalf of the Poor Souls in Purgatory
by Fr Francis Xavier Lasance
A Rare and Unusual Book!
It is hoped that this book will cultivate a special devotion to the holy souls in Purgatory. This devotion, while it solaces the Holy Souls, in whose behalf it is directly exercised, is eminently pleasing to God, and beneficial to ourselves. It is hoped that the “Reflections” contained in the first part of this little book will stimulate the pious reader to make frequent use of the prayers and devotions which are found in the second part for the solace of the suffering souls in Purgatory.
