“Always raise thy heart and mind to God, and with the light of grace which thou dost possess, never lose sight of the immutable being of the infinite and eternal God, or of His incomprehensible goodness which has led Him to draw man out of nothing, to raise him to His glory and enrich him with precious gifts”

The Divine Life of the Most Holy Virgin

Ven. Mary of Agreda

Trying to decide which book to read for Lent! I have a tight budget and will only choose one. Both of which I have never read before. Help me decide?

The Autobiography of St. Thérèse, The Story of a Soul

OR

The Diary of St. Maria Faustina

‘The Church’s Year of Grace’

The more I research about Liturgical Living, the more I’m humbled and wide-eyed at the vast amounts of knowledge, symbolism and tradition we have in the Catholic Church.

I happened upon a simple, but beautiful book cover while I was browsing Amazon for liturgical year books. Written by a priest, Pius Parsch, he wrote a 5-volume series in the 1950s detailing the Church’s year.

Unfortunately, the book is out of print. I did happen to find a digital copy of it on Archive.com, which we can check out the book for an hour at a time.

Below is the book’s excerpt for today:

A few of the other volumes can be following this search result for Pius Parsch, 1884-1956.

Can I just say that the customer service of the Catholic book publishing site Tan Books is amazing?

Last July I ordered an MP3 audiobook version of the book The Anti-mary Exposed. I received the downloadable files in an email. I didn't read the book right away, but for some reason I didn't download it right away either. It was a dumb move on my part, because yesterday I clicked one of the download links and it said 404 Error- Page Not Found. I emailed customer service, hoping they could send me new files, saying I still had the email receipt for proof of purchase if they needed it. I didn't have much hope though because I should've just downloaded the book right away and it's been almost 9 months since my order. But they replied back within a day saying the download has been added to my account. No charge. No need for proof of purchase. Nothing. Amazing.

Daily Random Library Book Day #1: "The Poetry of St. Thérèse of Lisieux"

I'm not really sure how I wasn't aware that St. Thérèse wrote poetry, especially after reading Story of a Soul so many times.
