A Story of Saint Jerome
by Brother Roberto, C.S.C.
Saint Jerome was born around 347 A.D in a province of the Roman Empire. He received a good education, and he was an excellent student. One day, he had a vision where he seemed to hear the voice of Jesus say, “You are a follower of Cicero—not of Christ.” After this vision, he devoted himself to prayer and studying the Bible. Jerome devoted 20 years of his life to translating the entire Bible into the everyday Latin of the people. He also wrote commentaries on the books of the Bible. Reading this story can encourage us to follow in the footsteps of Saint Jerome, who pursued holiness, studied the Bible, and helped others to gain a better understanding of the Bible.

The Desert Fathers
The Desert Fathers
by various authors
compiled by Helen Waddell
For several hundred years, in the youth of the Church, countless men, and a few women, fled the world and flocked to the deserted places of this earth wishing to found (and to find) their lives in God alone.Their experiences transformed not only their own lives, but also in many ways, the world they left behind.
The beauty and timelessness of their stories has captured the imagination of men throughout the ages that have followed. To live in search only of God and the eternal verities is a theme that men never weary contemplating and often imitate.The original of these translations is the Latin of the Vitae Patrum, a vast collection of the lives and sayings of the Desert Fathers, edited by the learned Rosweyde, and printed at the Plantin press in Antwerp in 1615.
The original ran to 1600 pages. These extracts assembled by Helen Waddell are among the best.
Includes short stories on
The Life of St Paul the First Hermit by St Jerome
The Life of St Pelagia the Harlot by James the Deacon
The Life of St Mary the Harlot by St Ephraem of Edessa
