Ready Now!
No. 0212    Reg. 16.50 — Sale 13.20 NOW only 10.56

The Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by Fr John Croiset, S.J. can be truly said to be the book on this devotion. Written by the spiritual director of St Margaret Mary (1647-1690), the book comes from the pen of a man intimately familiar with every aspect of the revelations given by Our Lord to this famous Saint; thus, the book is actually the "key" to understanding the importance of the Sacred Heart devotion—a devotion central to the Catholic Faith.

This wonderful book contains the life of St Margaret Mary Alacoque, chapters on acquiring the Devotion, obstacles and how to surmount them. How devotion to Our Lady and frequent Adoration of the Blessed Eucharist assist in the practice of it. How to celebrate the Feast of the Sacred Heart, litanies and special prayers and it includes the promises of the devotion and how to practice the Nine First Fridays.

An excellent resource for the month of June, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Attaining Salvation
Attaining Salvation. The promise of Eternal life has been a clarion call to the Saints for centuries, rousing them to action and heroic virtue. They knew that, compared with Eternity, this life is but a shadow. We must seek the same destination as the Saints in the midst of a world filled with amusements and vanities that constantly threaten our journey to Heaven. St. Alphonsus Liguori's Attaining Salvation is a timeless, priceless compass for that journey. Written when the great Doctor of the Church was 77 years old, this treasury of reflections shines with the mature learning of a brilliant mind and a life filled with the study and service of God. With 45 short chapters filled with provocative Scripture quotes, this book is at once challenging and easy to understand. It can be read a little at a time or all at once with equal benefit. The chapters cover a wide range of topics, including The Thought of Eternity, We Are Pilgrims on Earth, I Must One Day Die, Necessity of Mental Prayer, The Mercy of God, Detachment from Creatures, Lukewarmness and Purity of Intention. Attaining Salvation is a beautiful gem that will instruct and inspire every reader because it is written with the commanding insight of one of the Church's great saints. Its words do not just feed the intellect; they nurture the soul. It is St. Alphonsus Liguori at his best. Only 12.00 — Backorder Now! Shipping June 30th.
