John Vianney: Saint for Holy Orders

John Vianney: Saint for Holy Orders

John Vianney was born in France during the French Revolution when religion was forbidden. He desperately wanted to become a priest so that he could help people love God. Finally, he was ordained a priest, receiving the sacrament of Holy Orders.He was sent to the village of Ars, where a lot of people lost their faith. Father Vianney helped them find it, teaching them how to live and love like Jesus. "Come to mass, and come meet Jesus," he urged. He is the patron saint of parish priests. His feast day is August 4.Saints are real-life heroes of faith who inspire us by their virtues to become more like Christ. In the Saints and Me series, these beautifully illustrated early-reader books tell the real stories of saints that come to life and connect with today's children aged 4 to 9.
Lent and Holy Week with Saint Joseph
Make Lent and Holy Week even more meaningful with brief daily meditations that will help you focus on Our Lord's passion, death, and resurrection. Scripture readings, personal reflection, a question to ponder or an act to consider, and a short prayer to Saint Joseph are sure to lead you to a deeper relationship with Jesus and his foster father, Joseph.
Louis and Zélie: The Holy Parents of Saint Thérèse
Louis and Z lie Martin, the parents of Saint Th r se of Lisieux, were the first married couple ever canonized together by the Catholic Church. This inspiring story begins in their childhoods and follows them through their joys as well as their sorrows.Louis, the son of a French army officer, had desired to be a priest. Instead he became a watchmaker, happy to remain single in service of God and neighbor. Z lie had thought about becoming a religious sister, but she became an expert lace maker and started her own company, doubtful she would ever marry. Then one day they passed each other on a bridge . . .The Martins married and welcomed nine children, five of whom lived to adulthood and became religious sisters. Their household was full of love, which extended, sometimes heroically, to many others outside their family, including the needy and the enemy soldiers quartered in their home during the Franco-Prussian War. The secret to their unfailing love was their boundless faith in God. All the challenges the Martins faced, great and small, were met with a profound trust in Divine Providence.

Cardinal Schuster's Commentary on the Holy Rule of Saint Benedict

Alfredo Ildefonso Cardinal Schuster

pokkari
A modern scholar-saint on the great Rule by the Patriarch of Western monasticismAmong the giants of the Benedictine Order in modern times, Cardinal Alfredo Ildefonso Schuster stands out as a scholar, churchman, and saint-one who deeply researched monasticism and liturgy, and, in spite of being elevated to the archbishopric of Milan, kept the heart of a monk whose childlike faith, ascetical self-denial, and all-embracing charity were recognized in his beatification. Schuster's commentary on the Holy Rule of St Benedict of Nursia (first published in Italian at the end of World War II and now available in English for the first time) ranges from erudite discussion of monastic and liturgical history to eloquent lessons in spiritual doctrine, and is sprinkled with homely anecdotes and practical advice from a veteran of the monastic life who knew many of the outstanding figures of the great nineteenth-century Benedictine revival. His expert knowledge of patristic, canonical, and papal sources illuminates many otherwise obscure lines of the Rule, bringing its subtle genius into sharp relief. Amidst all the details of ancient, medieval, and modern history that fill the work, Schuster never loses sight of the Rule's fundamental goal: through charity, to bring souls seeking God to the heavenly fatherland of divine union. In addition to the commentary, the present edition contains the Latin text of the Rule, accompanied by a fresh and quite literal English translation that seeks to convey its "feel"-unpolished, at times abrupt, yet radiant with peaceful confidence.
