God's Little Hobo

Cyr Virginia

$10.00
In stock

Disabled. Abandoned. Institutionalized. Meet “God's little hobo," and a true child of Mary. Who would fault Virginia Cyr if she had become bitter toward life and angry at God? She was neither, despite the cerebral palsy that kept her in a wheelchair, despite her mother abandoning her as a youngster, despite her being placed in an orphanage and — though only in her twenties — in a nursing home because there simply were no other places for her. Virginia Cyr, God’s Little Hobo is Virginia’s story, in Virginia’s words. Here are her tender, amusing, inspiring, amazing “Letters to Mary” — the journal entries she painstakingly tapped out on a typewriter. Here are the thoughts and prayers, the hopes and dreams, she offered to the Blessed Mother. One gentle warning: You’re in for a surprise. In the words of Quentin Colgan, who edited Virginia’s manuscripts and wrote the introduction to this book: “I went down to Virginia’s room, knocked on the door, and my life changed forever. I don’t know exa..

When You Are a Catechist

Dunlap Judith

$12.00

Like the sower in the parable of Jesus, catechists, teachers, religious educators and parish ministers are called to continue sowing the seed by proclaiming through voice and action the word of God. Catechists are also charged with the task of preparing the soil to receive the word and creating an environment for the seed to take root and multiply a hundredfold. Veteran catechist Judith Dunlap offers those who teach children, teens and adults much inspirational and practical help about the call to serve, the gift of faith, the gift of prayer and ritual, the gift of community and the gift of self. She helps these "sowers" to unwrap each of these gifts and discover new ways to share them in their ministry...

Saint for the Third Millennium St Therese of Lisieux (F)

Connor Charles P Fr.

$38.99
In stock

Through spiritual childhood one experiences that everything comes from God, returns to Him, and abides in Him, for the salvation of all, in a mystery of merciful love. Such is the doctrinal message taught and lived by Saint Thérèse of Lisieux. After having thus turned the spotlight on the spiritual message of the Little Flower, Pope John Paul II solemnly declared her a Doctor of the Church at a Youth Day Rally in Paris, France, on Mission Sunday, October 19, 1997. Probably one of the best known and certainly one of the best loved of all the Saints in the Roman Calendar, questions still remain regarding the mystery of her impact on the modern world. Who was she? What exactly was her message? How did she embody the doctrine that she taught? What does she have to say to us that would make us call her: The Saint for the Third Millennium? In his well-researched, inimitable and highly readable style, Father Connor sheds new insights into the life and message of this great saint who has much ..

The bestselling author of The Lamb’s Supper continues his thoughtful exploration of the complex relationship between the Bible and the Catholic liturgy in a revelatory work that will appeal to all readers. Scott Hahn has inspired millions of readers with his perceptive and unique view of Catholic theology and worship, becoming one of the most looked-to contemporary authorities in these areas.

They are intended, through public recitations in churches and synagogues, to bring listeners and readers into the sweeping story of redemption as it unfolds in the Bible.
