Geiger calls attention to the deep Marian significance that Mr. Gibson purposely made clear in his powerful portrayal of the last hours of Christ, now a world famous movie, perhaps the most significant film ever made.  Included is the explanation of the beautiful teachings of the Church that will be used for the ultimate definition of Our Lady as Mediatrix of All Graces and Co-Redemptrix of the human race.  Includes Rosary of the 7 Sorrows, Act of Consecration to the Immaculate by St. Maximilian Maria Kolbe and  other devotions in honor of Our Blessed Mother. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11277.jpg 0.13 Rosary Novenas to Our Lady Charles V.

Lorenzo Sales, I.M.C. 11.95 10342 Spiritual Life 224 pages Book Paperback Alba House 8.2 x 5.3 x 0.5 inches 818900695 This work presents the unceasing act of love revealed to the Capuchin nun, Sister Mary Consolata Betrone (1903-1946) and is written by her spiritual director, Father Lorenzo Sales, I.M.C. (1892-1972). After one reads this book by Father Sales, which is based on the writings of Sister Consolata, you are convinced that those writings are too beautiful, too luminous, too tied up with the Spirit, to have originated here on earth. There is too much humility in Sister Consolata for her to have deceived herself and have accepted as words spoken by Our Lord what might instead be mere figments of her imagmation. There is so much clarity in the soul of this Religious that the words in which she relates the manifestations of the Beloved of her soul reflect the very brightness of heaven. There is so much love for Jesus in this angelic spouse of His, a love founded upon sacrifice, on self-denial, on annihilation of her own ego, that is for this reason a true and sincere love. It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that the Divine Spouse should have wished to make use of her for bringing His message of love to a world which loves Him so little. A fantastic and uplifting spiritual classic for our times and best seller around the world for the last 40 years. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10342.jpg 0.63 Tomorrow Will Be Too Late Norman B.

He was the bishop of Campos, Brazil, a diocese whose shape resembles a lion. Geographically, Campos, the episcopal seat, is the mouth of the lion. And, from this seat, with unparalleled foresight, Bishop de Castro Mayer prepared his flock against the destruction of the Second Vatican Council. In large part, it was remarkably spared. Its bishop was the mouth of the lion.. . . for thirty-three years. Then, he was replaced. Then, the strategized crucifixion of the Catholic Faith in Campos began. And then, the lion roared, and so did his flock. This is the story of the epic battle against Fideicide in a humble corner of South America. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11018.jpg 1.06 Divini Illius Magistri Pope Pius XI 4.25 11075 Encyclicals 60 pages Book Paperback Angelus Press 7 x 5.1 x 0.4 inches 1892331039 The inviolable principals which this document lays down regarding the Church, family and State in the matter of education, are based on the very nature of things and on revealed truth. They cannot be shaken by the edd and flow of events. As for the fundamental rules which it prescribes, these too are not subject to the wear and tear of time, since they are only the faithful echo of the Divine Master, Whose words shall not pass away. The encyclical is a real Magna Carta of Christian education, outside which no education is complete and perfect. It lends itself to study, today as it did in the past, by all those who, in a spirit of loyalty, desire to know, in this matter, the genuine and firm thought of the church, to whom belongs, in a very special manner, the mission of education. In times of difficulty, it provides, with its clarity of doctrine, a certain guide for the courageous efforts of Chatholic parents and teachers who are desirous of assuring youth of a formation fully in conformity with the requirements of the faith.- Pope Pius XII, 1955. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11075.jpg 0.19 Catholic, Apostolic & Roman Bishop Antonion de Castro Mayer 4.50 11128 Miscellaneous 59 pages Book Booklet Angelus Press 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.3 inches 1892331071 This group of priests remained faithful to the tradition of the Catholic Church under the leadership of their courageous Bishop of the diocese of Campos, Brazil.  (His story is told in the book, Mouth of the Lion.) They unite under the title Priestly Fraternity of St. John the Baptist-Mary Vianney and this booklet is a justification of their position within the Church.  Prescinding from the local authority of the currently presiding Bishop, they declare, We absolutely reject any intention, desire for, or spirit of schism.  We constitute no Lefebvrist or traditionalist party.  We are apostolic Roman Catholics.  Our resistance to authorities is circumstantial, temporary, and limited to those points on which those same authorities distance themselves from the doctrine of all times.  Unique to our century and following the upheavals of the 1960's, many such groups have fragmented in an effort to hold fast to the Faith delivered by the Saints.  Here is one more story of resistance to modernism, liberalism, communism, hedonism and the spirit of the brotherhood religion inspired by the Father of Lies.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11128.jpg 0.25 Jesus Make Me Worthy Fr.

John carefully examines a number of issues that simmer just beneath the surface of the film - vital issues like forgiveness, love, freedom, the role of Mary, salvation, and the meaning of suffering, human and divine.  The time he spent with myself and others involved in the production gives him a unique and, I think, interesting perspective.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11313.jpg 1 The Road to Socialism and the New World Order Dennis L. Cuddy, Ph. D. 15.00 10983 Miscellaneous 80 pages Book Booklet Bible Belt Publishing 8.3 x 5.4 x 0.4 inches 193364110X U.S. citizens find themselves in the unusual position of becoming dispossessed of Constitutional freedoms in a silent, undeclared war. However, few know of the coercive nature or true power and influence of this socialist political monopoly. Fewer still comprehend the true side which some of the players occupy in this war. Many see the current conservative victory as a solution, without understanding that some of the top Republican leadership are internationalists, pushing the last pieces of the New World Order in place. Dr. Cuddy comes to the task of exposing the socialist movement which is designed to rob the U.S. citizens of their constitutional rights, and to gradually erode and eliminate religious freedom and political self-government. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10983.jpg 0.5 National Mental Health Program Dr. Dennis L.

Congress WANTS to use funds from the public treasury to screen children, even without parental permission, in order to demand that parents allow mind-altering drugs to be administered to public school children, and all schools funded by federal sources. Take time now to oppose this tampering with parental rights which are being leeched from families as new laws are introduced every day “while American sleeps.” Dr. Cuddy has done a magnificent job of researching the background on this insidious new test, scheduled to be implemented September, 2005.

Cuddy 10.00 11336 Miscellaneous 41 pages Book Paperback Bible Belt Publishing 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.4 inches 1933641010 The impetus for this book has been the recommendation of President George W. Bush’s New Freedom Commission on Mental Health that all Americans, and especially children, receive mental health screenings. In the past, whenever there was controversial congressional legislation regarding children, it was easy to introduce and pass provisions in the bills requiring parental consent. However, recent attempts by U.S. Rep. Ron Paul to require parental consent for, and prohibit funding of, mental health screenings failed. This leads many to wonder whether there may be a larger agenda at work here, and it is in this new book that this larger agenda, its background, and its future implications, are explored. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11336.jpg 0.38 The Roman Ritual Dom Rembert Sorg 95.00 11325 The Mass/Liturgical Reform 607 pages Book Hardcover Bruce Publishing Co. 8.5 x 5.6 x 1.6 inches N/A The first of a three volume reproduction of the entire traditional Roman Ritual with the Latin orations and the literal English translation side by side. Volume one of this indispensable liturgical manual includes the complete liturgical formulas for six of the seven sacraments and their ritual rubrics (in red print), followed by the traditional prayers and rubrics governing the proper ceremony to be observed in the various kinds of religious processions that fall under divine worship. Although this Ritual is for priestly administrations, the ceremony for the consecration of a bishop is not included. In special cases a priest can administer Confirmation, therefore the Ritual does include that rite as it is ordered to this special ministration. Volumes two and three of the Rituale provide the formulas and rubrics for all other liturgical rites, including Catholic burials, exorcisms, and official blessings, both ordinary and reserved.  The Roman Ritual is the greatest gift anyone can give to a priest who reveres the Catholic western liturgy in all its majestic magnificence. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11325.jpg 1.75 Our Mother of Perpetual Help Redemptorist Fathers 1.00 10551 Mary 48 pages Book Booklet Carmelite Missions 5.5 x 3.6 x 0.1 inches N/A Novenas, Hymns and Prayers. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10551.jpg 0.06 Pray the Rosary Fr.

Paul Trinchard 8.95 10016 Catholic Teaching 120 pages Book Paperback Catholic Treasures 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.3 inches 962099481 In this outspoken and eye-opening book, internationally-known lecturer and columnist Fr. Paul Trinchard addresses the root question of our present crisis in Catholicism: the necessity of the Church for Salvation, which Father describes as this salutary dogma to which we must assent. His forceful style is intended to build a sense of urgency in the reader. Father begins by showing from Scripture and Tradition that no one can be saved outside the Catholic Church. He then comments on how the Church is to be saved from the spiritual disease which currently attacks her - and proves she will be saved. Finally, he gives concrete advice for saving one's own soul in the present situation. See why International Pilgrim Virgin escort Louis Kaczmarek says this book should be required reading for Catholics who want to save their souls as well as their Church. A complete treatment of what is emerging as the focal point of orthodox/modernist conflict - practical denial of the absolute necessity of the Church for salvation for every individual soul.

At that time our language did not even include such things as bikinis, bathing suits, shorts, tank tops, cut offs, plunging necklines, sleeveless blouses, strapless dresses, see-through fabrics, spaghetti straps or backless dresses, to say nothing of the styles displayed in mail order catalogs that you throw away before anyone sees them!

It is the un-created Life of God that must be transmitted into a soul destined for the Beatific Vision.  Answers why Adam and Eve nor any of their canonized children could achieve eternal bliss in the State of Justice; how men become Spouses of Jesus Christ and Temples of His Holy Spirit, regenerated, indeed, re-created fit for the Kingdom of Heaven. With a glowing commendation by Fr. Timothy Hopkins of St. Philomena Shrine, Miami, Florida.  You will understand, after reading this marvelous book, why baptism of desire, alone cannot bring about a new creature, any more than a desire for a new child alone can bring about the creation of a new person! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11049.jpg 2.38 Of Mary There is Never Enough William L. Biersach 12.95 11225 Mary 122 pages Book Hardcover Catholic Treasures 7.3 x 5.3 x 0.5 inches 1885692099 A tribute to the Blessed Virgin Mother that is unequaled in our times. Drawing on the ancient Fathers and Doctors of the Church and on the hidden Scriptures which tell of the love of God for this singular beauty of His creation, Mr. Biersach has woven a tapestry of his own making, baring a heart not altogether unlike those of the best saints who have written of Her. Some will savor in his writings a whiff of Belloc, others a turn of phrase reminiscent of Chesterton. Bringing with him the terminology of his own generation and some of the flair of the 60's, the author, like a knight in rusty armor, declares his unworthiness to present to us so sublime a Person as she who has captivated the Heart of God. You will want to give copies of this book to everyone who is dear to you. For the answer to all problems, and to paraphrase St. Bernard, in all things, give them Our Lady! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11225.jpg 0.44 Douay-Rheims Haydock Bible Fr.

Mary Therese Peterson 12.95 11448 Eucharist 166 pages Book Paperback Catholic Treasures 8.5 x 5.5 x .7 inches N/A Is the Holy Eucharist REALLY the Body and Blood of Christ, as the Church has taught for 2,000 years, or do we receive only a symbolic reminder of Jesus at the Last Supper?  Statisticians claim that a high percentage of Catholics in our time have lost the true meaning of Holy Communion and demonstrate their unbelief by neglecting to genuflect in the presence of Christ, or by talking in Church as if it were a social hall.  Our author has gone to the heart of the matter and has shown conclusively that this is the GREAT sacrament that nourishes every life that was recreated in the sacrament of baptism - making the recipient true blood brothers and sisters of Christ by sharing intimately in His very Divine nature..  Color photos show Padre Pio in ecstasy as he celebrates the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.  Beautifully written and thoroughly convincing.  A great gift item for those who may be weak in faith or poorly instructed. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11448.jpg 0.63 The Hidden Face of the United Nations Michel Schooyans 15.00 11178 Contemporary Issues 208 pages Book Paperback Central Bureau 9 x 5.8 x 0.6 inches 1887567186 The turmoil and tumult [within the UN] is no surprise to Fr. Schooyans, for truth does not appear to be the operative basis for consensus.  He understands and shows only too well how the UN today regards the rights of man as products of negotiation since, in its supreme moral and epistemological agnosticism, the UN does not believe it possible to know the truth about man and his values.  Truth falls victim under the axe of the consensus.  But the UN's blind eye to the truth of things does not imbue it with a sense of humility.  Rather its agnosticism does not inhibit but emboldens.  The UN charges ahead on the dubious strength of an arbitrary and highly fallible consensus.  Hence, its intolerance of the Church that is concerned about truth, and the family that is a democratic institution founded on love.  Schooyans' book brings the hidden face of the UN into light and exposes it as tyrannical.  As is his metier, Schooyans pulls no punches: he knows what is at stake and makes it unmistakably clear: Attention!  You are in the process of installing a new religion totally secularized and paganized.  You are trying to put in place a magisterium that claims to produce and impose Unique Thought.  You are busy with your inquisitorial tribunals to prosecute those who are regarded as ‘politically incorrect'. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11178.jpg 0.75 Summa Theologica St. Thomas Aquinas 245.00 10794 Theology/Philosophy 3104 pages, 5 volumes Book Hardcover Christian Classics 10.1 x 8.4 x 7 inches 870610635 This most brilliant synthesis of Christian thought ever produced by man has had a decisive and permanent impact on the Church since the 13th century.

And since medieval Europe was the cradle of modern Western society, this work is vital for understanding our world and how it came into being. St. Augustine is probably the most influential Christian thinker after St. Paul, and the book is his masterpiece, a vast synthesis of religious and secular knowledge. It began as a reply to the charge that Christian other-worldliness was causing the decline of the Roman Empire. Augustine produced a wealth of evidence to prove that paganism bore within itself the seeds of its own destruction. Then he proceeded to his larger theme, a cosmic interpretation of history in terms of the struggle between good and evil: the City of God in conflict with the Earthly City or the City of the Devil. This, the first serious attempt at a philosophy of history, was to have incalculable influence in forming the Western mind on the relation of Church and State and on the Christian's place in the temporal order. The original City of God contained twenty-two books and fills three regular-sized volumes. This edition has been skillfully abridged for the intelligent general reader by Vernon J. Bourke, author of Augustine's Quest of Wisdom. The heart of this monumental work is now available to a much wider audience. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10128.jpg 1.1 Confessions of St. Augustine St. Augustine 10.95 10140 Theology/Philosophy 432 pages Book Paperback Doubleday 8 x 5.2 x 1 inches 385029551 By common consent the work known as the Confessions of St. Augustine has a special place among the world's great books. Autobiographical in character, it is not an attempt to tell the story of all the years of the writer's life, least of all of the outward events of those years. But no writer ever went deeper into his own character and deeds, passed keener judgments upon himself, or revealed himself more fully and more humbly to others...His book is not only a most penetrating psychological study and a unique document for understanding the spiritual and ascetical life, but it is also a storehouse of thought for the philosopher and the theologian, and for others as well. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10140.jpg 0.75 One World Tal Brooke 14.95 11152 Contemporary Issues 273 pages Book Paperback End Run Publishing 8.6 x 5.6 x 0.7 inches 1930045077 Tal Brooke uncovers the deep and often hidden forces behind the sweeping changes taking place right now. It suggests that certain turns in the road of history have remained unknown by the public - intentionally. In today's monopolized information gateway there are, indeed, patters being kept from public view for the simple reason that this radical transition requires a docile and trusting public - a public that is willing to accept the popular reasons America and other nations have been pushed into a national debt equal to their net worth; why the family continues to disintegrate; why male and females roles blur; and why Christianity and traditional values disappear to be replaced by another system. The Financial, military, political, and spiritual arms of this powerful agenda have an interlocking purpose that gives the plan almost irresistible power. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11152.jpg 0.88 Fatima Priest Francis Alban 9.95 11165 Biography 342 pages Book Paperback Good Counsel Publications 6.9 x 4 x 1.2 inches 966304640 Fatima Priest is the amazing story of the life and apostolate of Father Nicholas Gruner, the Canadian priest who has devoted his priesthood to keeping alive the Message of Our Lady of Fatima. If the warning in that Message were silenced throughout the Church, you and your family would be in grave danger. From Canada to Fatima, from  India to Mexico, then to the inner workings of the Vatican bureaucracy in its pursuit of Ostpolitik, Fatima Priest is a global adventure more exciting than fiction. The stakes in this adventure are enormous: nothing less than the survival of our civilization. As Our Lady said at Fatima: If My requests are not granted... various nations will be annihilated. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11165.jpg 0.56 The Secret Still Hidden Christopher A. Ferrara 14.95 11396 Apparitions & Prophecy 248 pages Book Paperback Good Counsel Publications 8.9 x 6 x 0.6 inches 981535704 On June 26, 2000 the Vatican published the enigmatic vision of the Bishop dressed in white and claimed it was the entirety of the Third Secret of Fatima. Since then, a growing number of Catholics have become convinced that something is missing. What is missing are the words of the Virgin Mary which would explain how the Pope in the vision comes to be executed by soldiers outside a ruined city filled with corpses. But no pope has been killed yet, so how can this pope be Pope John Paul II?  In this book, attorney and Catholic commentator Christopher A. Ferrara conducts a meticulous examination of a mass of evidence - including many recent admissions, inadvertent disclosures, inconsistencies and sudden about-faces on the part of the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone - to arrive at the inescapable conclusion that the rest of the Virgin's words in the Third Secret have yet to be revealed.   http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11396.jpg 0.81 Hostage to the Devil Malachi Martin 16.95 10915 Satan 477 pages Book Paperback HarperOne 8 x 5.3 x 1.4 inches 006065337X This famous author of The Jesuits has provided us with a classic work on the subject of possession by the Devil and exorcism: Presents the true life possession of five different living Americans and their subsequent exorcisms which are vivid proof of the evil and wickedness of the Devil.

Blessed with tremendous natural and supernatural gifts, including a wonderful sense of humor, St. John Bosco overcame great obstacles to help deprived children find a better life. Juggler, magician, acrobat, tailor, teacher, and writer?John Bosco became all of these in his efforts to lead boys and girls to God. A prayer was the price of admission to his shows; a friendly contest to match skill or strength was his answer to those who laughed at him. As a priest he was known as Don Bosco and built churches and schools. Don Bosco's schools were cheerful places where the school spirit ran high. This story of Saint John Bosco and his pupil, Saint Dominic Savio, will appeal to the young readers of today. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10740.jpg 0.5 The World's First Love Fulton J.

Michael Jones 16.95 11001 Contemporary Issues 195 pages Book Paperback Ignatius Press 9 x 6 x 0.5 inches 898704847 Reveals how major figures connected with modern music projected their own immorality into the field of music which has been the main vehicle of cultural revolution in the West. For the first time ever, a unified theory on music and cultural revolution links the work of figures like Wagner, Nietzsche, Schönberg, Jagger and others to show the connection between the demise of classical music and the rise of rock n' roll. Beginning with Nietzsche's appropriation of Wagner's opera Tristan and Isolde, music became the instrument for cultural upheaval. What began at the barricades of Dresden in 1849 found its culmination at Woodstock and Altamont and the other Dionysian festivals of 1969. Jones shows the connection between the death of classical music and the rise of the African sensibility which Nietzsche saw as the antidote to Wagner prostrating himself before the cross in Parsifal. Nietzsche prophesied the end of the age of Christ/Socrates and the return of the spirit of music to philosophy. That return took place at the end of 1969 at an abandoned racetrack outside of San Francisco, and the world has never been the same since then. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11001.jpg 0.75 The Truth About Homosexuality John F.

Brown wants his readers to believe that he is revealing the long-concealed truth about Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and early Christianity, a truth that he says has been suppressed by the malevolent and conspiratorial forces of the Catholic Church. The novel alleges that there has been throughout history a secret group of true followers of a Gnostic Jesus and his wife, Mary Magdalene, the true """"Holy Grail"""". Almost everything most Christians and non-Christians think they know about Jesus, according to Dan Brown, is completely wrong, the result of Catholic propaganda designed to hide the truth from the world. But are The Da Vinci Code’s claims fact or just plain fiction? Is the novel well-researched as claimed? What is the truth about Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and the early Church? Has the Catholic Church distorted the real Jesus? Why is the novel so popular? What about the anti-Catholic, anti-Christian agenda behind the novel? Best selling author Carl Olson and journalist Sandra Miesel answer these and other important questions. Their painstaking research into The Da Vinci Code and its sources reveals some surprising truths.

Although Sister Faustina died in 1938, this work has already become a classic on God's Mercy. Contains all the words of Our Lord to Sister Faustina in bold print and the words of Our Lady in italics. From them we learn of the Divine Mercy Devotion, the promises of the Devotion, Our Lord's desire to have the Sunday after Easter designated as Mercy Sunday each year, and Our Lord's request that we display a special picture of Him showing red and white rays coming from His Merciful Heart with the inscription at the bottom, Jesus, I Trust in You. On February 17, 1937, Our Lord told Sister Faustina that the end of the world and His Second Coming is near when He said, Souls perish in spite of My bitter Passion. I am giving them the last hope of salvation; that is, the Feast of My Mercy. If they will not adore My Mercy, they will perish for all eternity. Secretary of My Mercy, write, tell souls about this great Mercy of Mine, because the awful day, the day of My Justice, is near. - Page 374. Must reading!

Paul Trinchard 9.95 10587 The Mass/Liturgical Reform 267 pages Book Paperback Marian Publications 8.4 x 5.3 x 0.8 inches 1886492026 In the footsteps of Msgr. Klaus Gamber and Cardinal Ratzinger, Fr. Trinchard presents a licensed theologian's personal analysis of the Mass as experienced in the United States since 1968 when priests were forbidden the use of Latin. Using the English for all the years of his priesthood, Fr. Trinchard began to say the Latin Tridentine Mass 3 years ago, and his life was changed by it. In this new book, Father presents the thoughts of St. Leonard of Port Maurice on the basic purpose of the Mass of all time. He then goes on to offer meditations and reflections on each part of the Mass, footnoting the Latin portions on the left side of the page, as well as the exact English translation on the right side of the page. Included are quotations from some of the greatest saints commenting on the Mass such as St. John Chrysostom, St. Pius X and Cardinal Neuman who calls the Holy Mass the greatest action that can be on earth. Father's deep love of the Tridentine Mass expresses the conversion of heart which occurred to him as a result of offering the Canonized Mass, and we are sure such a conversion would occur each time a priest returned to the celebration of the Mass Rite he was born into. This is the Mass Padre Pio said the world could not get along without! It is the Holy Mass St. Peter Julian Eymard said is the offering that is most precious, most useful, and most agreeable to the Divine Majesty. Following the Mass prayers there is a section including prayers which most Catholics have not seen for many years, such as the Anima Christi of St. Thomas Aquinas, the Sucipe of St. Ignatius Loyola, Act of Reparation to the Most Blessed Sacrament, the Eucharistic Prayers from Fatima , and Prayer for the Return of the Roman Rite Mass. Written as a prayerbook to be taken to Mass also.

This comprehensive volume, several years in preparation, will reveal to those who take up its sacred quest the hidden mysteries and forgotten treasures of the apostle of the end times. It is not by chance that this first comprehensive presentation of montfort spirituality is now being published. The Montfort community has heeded the Holy Father's words that this spirituality belongs to the whole Church, to the whole world. This volume presents a spirituality of Consecration to God Alone through His Mother?as the Mother of God. Mary is Mother of the total human family, each person, and all of creation. It is she who St. Louis de Montfort says will bring us together from all nations. For Montfort she is the first and last way to God: the accomplisher of her Son's Incarnation and work of salvation. It is she who wins through humility what has been lost through pride. In the words of Montfort, she is the masterpiece of grace on earth . . . the dawn which precedes and discloses the Sun of Justice . . . the way He will come to us a second time . . . mercy, power, and grace...who will crush the head of Satan . . . the sure, direct and immaculate way . . . to incarnate Wisdom . . . to the Blessed Trinity. John Paul II calls his encounter with Montfort spirituality the decisive turning point in his life. He terms it indispensable to anyone who means to give himself without reserve to Christ. It is, he says, a new attitude springing from the depths of my faith, as though from the very heart of the Trinity and Jesus Christ . . . . It is the best means of participating fruitfully and effectively in this reality Mother Teresa of Calcutta in a recent letter to the Holy Father recommended, that the Cause of St. Louis de Montfort may soon be advanced, and that he may soon be counted among the doctors of the Church...all for Jesus through Mary. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11016.jpg 4 Purgatorian Manual N/A 8.00 11362 Prayerbooks 303 pages Book Paperback Mother of Our Savior Catholic Goods 6 x 4 x 0.8 inches 977857026 This little prayer book is the manual of the Purgatorian Society which helps to foster devotion to the Holy Souls in Purgatory. It contains spiritual reading and prayers for every day of the month as well as many traditional prayers. Includes some hard to find prayers such as the 30 day prayer of Mary in honor of the passion, novena to Holy Souls, and the 3 day prayer in honor of Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Gives information on how to join the Purgatorian Society today. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11362.jpg 0.31 Abandonment to Divine Providence Jean-Pierre de Caussade 13.00 10002 Spiritual Life 119 pages Book Paperback Nabu Press 9.6 x 7.4 x 1.1 inches 1177573687 This is classic wisdom from the past on living fully in the present.  For more than 250 years, this gem of inspiration has guided readers to the open-hearted acceptance of God's will that is the sure path to serenity, happiness, and spiritual peace.  The moderns who are preoccupied with dreary self-awareness and self-absorption are encouraged to abandon the siren call of the world and its philosophies and find peace and true happiness in abiding trust in God's love and providence.

Homes have lost their inviting charm as places of welcome that cultivate human relationships. The refined, courteous habit of letter-writing has been replaced by brusque electronic communication. The solitary time spent on the internet has spoiled the social occasions of friendship and conversation. The habit of pleasing others has been overcome by the compulsion to please oneself. And the age-old custom of courtship has been subverted by “living together” in cohabitation. Without the habits and manners instilled by these lost arts, civilization suffers, daily life becomes drab, and the simple pleasures that created the art of living become rare experiences rather than normal customs. The whole quality of human life depends upon the preservation of the amenities that epitomize kindness, thoughtfulness, and graciousness. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11439.jpg 0.56 Beating Cancer with Nutrition Patrick Quillin 24.95 11113 Miscellaneous 414 pages Book Paperback Nutrition Times Press 8.9 x 6 x 1 inches 096383729X A well-nourished cancer patient can better manage and beat the disease. The 34 year war on cancer has cost $52 billion in government research with a resulting increase in the incidence and death rate from cancer.

Comprehensive cancer treatment must include an aggressive nutrition component, which can increase life expectancy by 12 to 21 fold along with better chances for complete remission. In this major revision of the bestseller, Dr. Patrick Quillin shares his extensive and very practical experience in helping hundreds of cancer patients with a nutrition program of diet and supplements. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11113.jpg 1.31 They Bore the Wounds Mike Freze 16.95 10806 Miscellaneous 350 pages Book Paperback Our Sunday Visitor 9 x 6 x 0.8 inches 879734221 The most comprehensive treatment ever done on the Sacred Stigmata.

These meetings have lately been covered by the media because of large groups of citizens who demonstrate outside the hotels in opposition to world government while the most expensive security is hired to keep the public, and newsmen, from knowing the outcome of such high level talks. This is the first comprehensive account of the structures and influence of these two little-known organizations. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11416.jpg 0.38 Jesus, Peter, and the Keys Scott Butler 14.95 10900 Miscellaneous 431 pages Book Paperback Queenship Publishing 8.4 x 5.4 x 0.9 inches 1882972546 """This brand new selection is already at the top of the best-seller list. The reviews speak for themselves. Let us just cite a sampling: Jesus, Peter and the Keys raises issues no serious student of the Bible can blithely ignore. The time has come for Protestants to set aside their aversions to Roman Catholicism which color their interpretation of the New Testament, and let the text speak for itself. (Dr. James Shelton, Oral Roberts University). No longer may Protestants exclaim, """"Sola Scriptura"""" to rebuke Roman Catholic papal dogma. The authority of Scripture is presented as a convincing apologetic for the primacy of Peter (Rev. S. D. De Hart, Rector, St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, Gainesville, FL). Christians will find unity only as they obey the leaders Christ appoints in the Holy Catholic Church, beginning with the Apostle Peter. The historical references quoted in this scriptural handbook give important evidence of that fact. (Rev. K. W. Kinney, First Presbyterian Church, Lake Forest, IL). Bible verses leap to life with hitherto unimagined significance and the jigsaw puzzle of early Church history comes together into a picture of disarming clarity. This book is a bombshell. It serves up an avalanche of incontrovertible evidence, more overwhelming than any single argument---much of it, remarkably, culled from Protestant sources. (Philip Blosser, Proff. Philosophy, Lenoir-Rhyne Lutheran College). Scott Butler, one of the three authors/compilers of this blockbuster book, has personally brought into the Catholic Church over 400 Protestant ministers, with more on the way every week. Scott challenges anyone to read this book and remain unmoved by Christ's invitation to be a part of His Mystical Body. Peter's Keys, Faith and Baptism, are still opening the gate of Heaven to all men of good will. Magnificent quotes. An unforgettable contribution to the effort to fulfill Christ's great plea, That they be one, Father, as thou in me and I in thee. That they may be one in us.""" http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10900.jpg 1.25 Gabriel Garcia Moreno Mary Monica Maxwell-Scott 9.95 11306 Biography 170 pages Book Paperback R & T Washbourne 6.8 x 4.3 x 0.5 inches N/A This great, courageous Catholic man gave his life for God and his beloved country, Ecuador.  So great was this man that Our Lady of Good Success appeared to a Conceptionist sister, Mother Mariana de Jesus Torres, in Quito, Ecuador, over 250 years before his time, to predict and prepare the country for his coming.  Our Lady said, In the 19th Century, there will be a truly Catholic President, a man of character whom God, Our Lord, will give the palm of martyrdom on the square adjoining this convent.  He will consecrate this Republic to the Sacred Heart of my Most Holy Son, and this consecration will sustain the Catholic Religion in the years that will follow, which will be ill-fated ones for the Church.  A most excellent role model for our times. Includes Novena prayers for his Canonization. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11306.jpg 0.31 The Saint of Philadelphia Philip Douglas 7.95 10661 Saints 180 pages Book Paperback Ravengate Press 8 x 5.2 x 0.5 inches 911218084 Saint John Neumann is the third United States citizen and the first member of the American hierarchy to be declared a saint. Born in 1811 in Bohemia, now a part of Czechoslovakia, he came to the United States in 1836 and was ordained a priest by Bishop John Dubois of New York. Serving first as pastor of several scattered parishes near Buffalo, in 1840 he entered the Redemptorist congregation and labored twelve years in the areas surrounding Pittsburgh and Baltimore. In 1852 he was named, against his will, fourth bishop of Philadelphia, where he gave an example of selfless dedication and zeal as bishop of what was then the largest diocese in the United States. He died in 1860 and is buried in the Redemptorist church in Philadelphia. Pope Paul VI beatified John Neumann in 1963 and canonized him on June 19, 1977. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10661.jpg 0.56 The Church & Spiritualism Herbert Thurston 24.95 11092 Orthodoxy 300 pages Book Hardcover Roman Catholic Books 8.8 x 5.7 x 1.3 inches N/A At last, Fr. Thurston's masterpiece is back in print - just in time to help ordinary Catholics meet challenges raised by renewed interest (and dabbling) in spiritualism, especially among New Age devotees. Five specific reasons for the Church's warning against involvement with spiritualism. Three guiding principles with regard to spiritualist phenomena and practices. Are departed souls aware of what goes on on earth? Answers from Aquinas. The basic reason for rejecting spiritualism as a source of divine communication. Famous cases of ghostly manifestations: some are fakes - while others survive the strictest scrutiny. Examined searchingly: various individual claims of spiritual contact by a variety of mediums. Convincing examples of clairvoyance, telekinesis, and others. Reasons for spiritualism's allure, especially to non-Christians. The amazing case of the medium who was converted to Catholicism, and granted an audience with the Pope. How mischievous spirits may distort the content of the message. Contradictory of testimony about what the Afterlife is like from purported spirits. Why the discrepancies? Why nothing truly useful or beneficial can be learned from spiritualist communications. Strong evidence for such phenomena as levitation of heavy objects, ghostly rapping, and other forms of haunting.  Why the early Church Fathers looked on magic and the occult as almost the deadliest enemy. Mental and moral dangers of attempting to communicate with the spirits of the dead. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11092.jpg 1.5 Love and Economics Jennifer Roback Morse 27.95 11206 Parenthood/Family 273 pages Book Hardcover Ruth Institute Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 0.4 inches 981605915 The author writes with the sophisticated mind of a keen economist and the passionate heart of a loving mother. She addresses the problem of freedom in the modern family, where each member pursues his own self-interest rather than the good of the others. Only families grounded in self-giving love can assure the survival of a free society, and Dr. Morse offers a personal philosophy of self-giving love as a prescription for individual happiness and social balance. She gives a compelling argument as to why the laissez-faire family doesn't work! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11206.jpg 1.38 The Sadness of Christ St. Thomas More 9.95 10658 Christ 155 pages Book Paperback Scepter Publishers 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches 933932669 The full title of this book - The Sadness, the Weariness, the Fear, and the Prayer of Christ Before He Was Taken Prisoner - focuses sharply on Christ's human reaction to His approaching death. It is More's last work before he was beheaded under the reign of Henry VIII, and he asks, How is it appropriate that Christ Himself, the very prototype and leader of martyrs, the standard bearer of them all, should be so terrified at the approach of pain, so shaken, so utterly downcast - so sad? In this story of that time when the apostles were sleeping as the Son of Man was being betrayed, More sees a mysterious image of future times. Peter, James, and John represent Church leaders who fall asleep at their post while the Jewish leaders who commissioned Judas represent other governors and other Caesars who rise against Christ's followers. More's message is intentionally universal, applicable to every age and to every individual. More recognized that the greatest sources of suffering are the people closest to us, and he reserves the most pointed remarks for Bishops who are sleepy and apathetic in sowing virtues and maintaining the truth. This is Lenten reading suitable for the entire year. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10658.jpg 0.56 The Four Last Things St. Thomas More 10.00 11238 Spiritual Life 218 pages Book Paperback Scepter Publishers 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches 1889334650 For those readers who enjoyed the wit and insight of St. Thomas More in his The Sadness of Christ and Dialogue of Comfort against Tribulation. This book is a must. It contains three works that span his lifetime. The first, “The Four Last Things,” written just after his knighthood, is an essay in which Sir Thomas demonstrates that the daily application of these four “herbs” – i.e. meditating on death, judgement, Heaven, and Hell – is a sure medicine against the seven deadly sins and, ultimately, eternal damnation. The second work, “The Supplication of Souls,” was penned prior to his appointment as Lord Chancellor of England. It is a spirited defense against a popular defamatory tract that blamed all the ills of the kingdom on the clergy. In it he also sets forth arguments, primarily Scriptural, for the existence of Purgatory, made all the more poignant by his writing in the persona of those who are suffering there. The third work, “A Dialogue on Conscience,” is an unforgettable discussion between Sir Thomas, now a prisoner in the Tower of London, and his daughter Margaret, on the subjects of law, conscience, and personal responsibility. Definitely food for the Mind, the heart, and the soul. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11238.jpg 0.63 Fatima in Lucia's Own Words Vol. II, 5th and 6th Memoirs Lucia Santos 8.95 11412 Apparitions & Prophecy 207 pages Book Paperback Secretariado dos Pastorinhos 7.6 x 5.4 x 0.6 inches 972852420X First printed in 2004, this outstanding volume is little-known, even to Fatima afficionados. It deserves wide and immediate distribution, not because it tells the date and time when future events will take place, but because they were written at the express request of the Rector of Fatima to be a reminder to all Catholics of the value of the family to the Church and to all of society. Under attack as it is today, the family bears little resemblance to the one in which Lucia grew up, filled as it was with deep and sincere Faith. God and the Church were in the air they breathed, their celebrations centered around holy days and Feasts of the Saints. To be especially noted is the clarity of the mind and memory of this blessed child as she now writes in the last years of her life. These recollections and memories of her home, family and years spent in the fields with Jacinta and Francisco tending their sheep will warm your heart and assure you that she and the children were truly blessed by God to be the instruments of Our Lady's 20th century message. 207 pp. PB.

Many Jesuits are at war and orthodox Catholicism is their enemy. With skill, passion and zeal these rebellious Jesuits are waging a war to the death. The targets include the Pope and the Papacy and the dismantling of the hierarchic Church and its teachings as they have been known for sixteen centuries. They have targeted and already changed the moral code and the political consensus of the American people. It is a war that signals the most lethal change within the Roman clergy in a thousand years. Read of their involvement in Central America, especially Nicaragua, and see how their work is already changing the face of all our tomorrows. Staggering expose! The author wrote this as a request from his fellow Jesuits. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10341.jpg 1 Mother of God Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary 10.00 11066 Mary 122 pages Book Paperback Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.4 inches N/A Mary, the Mother of God, was was fourteen years old when she conceived her Divine Child.  She was fifteen when she bore Him into the world at Bethlehem.  This opening to the  life of Our Lady proceeds to dazzle the imagination with the wealth of knowledge available regarding the Woman of Holy Scripture, which says little of her.  But wait!  Perhaps there is more in Holy Scripture regarding this most blessed of all women, than we have ever known.  It is true.  Here are details of the hidden life of Our Lady which every Catholic ought to know and cherish, as did the priest who taught these truths.  Originally printed in 1956, thousands of copies of this outstanding book have been distributed across America, and fortunately, it is back in print during the Jubilee year.  Contains 12 full color masterpieces of famous art.  Fifteen chapters covering every aspect of Our Lady's life.  The most concise and inspiring summation of the Mother of God in print today.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11066.jpg 0.5 Garment of Grace for Children Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary 4.00 11098 Books for Children 45 pages Book Booklet Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary 8.2 x 5.4 x 0.2 inches N/A Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Vienna, Ohio.  Here is a brand new printing for children of the famous GARMENT OF GRACE done previously for adults.  Richly illustrated with traditional pictures and original art work, and printed in large print size for small children, this will be a joy to read to little ones, or for use as a reader for the school-age child.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11098.jpg 0.13 Mary the Dawn Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary 4.00 11294 Mary 36 pages Book Booklet Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.1 inches N/A To honor the 150th anniversary (in 2004) of the definition of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception, this religious order of sisters has compiled a collection of traditional color pictures to illustrate their Novena in Honor of the Immaculate Conception and Stations of the Infant Jesus by St. Alphonsus Liguori.

Here he recounts the  gripping, step-by-step process of spiritual puzzle-solving that finally culminated in thus seeing that it is in fact the Roman Catholic Church which is the true Church of Jesus Christ - the Church which the Lord Himself founded upon Peter, the Prince of the Apostles, and which He promised to be with until the end of time and against which the gates of Hell would not prevail - that it is that Church which continues to promulgate the selfsame Gospel of Jesus Christ since Our Divine Master ascended into Heaven. The author not only substantiates his arguments from the Bible, but shows in the process that it is the Catholic Church and her teachings which are based upon Scripture and not Protestant beliefs.

This is a much-needed true view showing how Christendom suffered shipwreck in the Protestant Revolt against Christ and His Catholic Church. He traces the struggle, blow by blow, from the Advent of the Disaster, to the opening of the floodgates with Luther in 1517, through the English Accident and Calvin. He then shows the spiritual, military, political and financial struggles of this conflict among the French, English, Scottish, Dutch and German, describing how by 1648 the battle to keep Christendom united and in the Catholic Faith had failed of exhaustion, ending in a divided Europe, with the Protestant rebellion settling down to permanent possession of certain previously Catholic areas of Europe.

Then he paints the wonders of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and finally he concludes on the power of ejaculations and the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary. The most beautiful aspect of this consoling and moving book is his frequent use of lovely, short anecdotes from the lives and sayings of the Saints. The principal value of this book is that it proves one need not be a saint to enjoy prayer and to derive great benefits from it.

The book is filled with inspiring short anecdotes about St. Benedict's life and miracles. The narrative is then followed by a summary of the Saint's life and work and his incredible influence upon the Catholic world; plus, there is a section on the St. Benedict Medal?the most indulgenced and the most powerful medal in the Church, especially against the Devil.

Man cannot be saved without prayer. In order to understand this truth in its full extent, we must consider first, that we cannot be saved unless we fulfill the will of God; secondly, that we are unable to do God's will unless we are assisted by Divine grace; thirdly, that we obtain this grace by prayer alone; that consequently we must pray in order to be saved. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10590.jpg 0.5 The Secret of Mary St. Louis Marie de Montfort 5.00 10673 Mary 89 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 5.9 x 3.7 x 0.3 inches 895556170 St. Louis Marie De Montfort summarizes his Marian teaching.

The reason the apostle’s interior life is “the soul of the apostolate,” he explains, stems form the very nature of God, which is Goodness Itself, and which overfills in His Will to communicate Himself to others. This communication to men is accomplished through the God-Man Jesus Christ, and from Him to His Church, and from His Church to His apostolic members in every age. What is bring given by God to the world, the author explains, is actually a sharing in the life of God Himself - Sanctifying Grace - so that, “through men, men are to find out the way to salvation.”(Page 4). Apostolic work is thus “a share in His work and in His glory!” (Page 5). Therefore, the apostle of Jesus Christ has to cultivate, through prayer, the life of God in his soul, that through him God may work more effectively. For the work of any true apostolate is really God’s work, not that of the individual apostle. “He must increase, but I must decrease,” said St. John the Baptist of his own apostolate. (John 3:30). “And I live, now not I, but Christ liveth in me,” exclaimed St. Paul. (Galatians 2:20). Both these passages give Scripture’s view of the apostle and his work. Ultimately, the Apostle of Jesus Christ is helping to communicate the divine life of God to others; and this activity, of its very nature, is totally beyond his capability. By prayer, meditation and cultivation of the interior life, the apostle of Christ will develop himself to be a better channel of God’s grace to others, and he will come to understand his own insignificance and his true role in his apostolic work - as that of an instrument of God. This is a necessary insight for all true apostles to achieve and one which Dom Chautard explores from every angel in this book. For anyone, therefore, who would work for Our Lord and His Church, there is no book more important to read and to follow than Dom Chartard’s The Soul of the Apostolate. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10702.jpg 0.56 St. Catherine of Siena Alice Curtayne 17.00 10724 Saints 268 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.5 x 0.8 inches 895551624 St. Catherine of Siena ranks as one of the greatest, most interesting, most influential and most popular saints in all of Church history. She was a twin, the 23rd of 25 children, a mystic, a stigmatic and a miracle-worker. Through her influence, thousands of people returned to the Faith. Her crowning achievement consisted of persuading Pope Gregory XI to return the Papacy to Rome, thus ending the Babylonian Captivity. She labored valiantly to end the Great Western Schism. She is one of the greatest spiritual treasures of the Church. For her writings and heroic virtue, Pope Paul VI declared her a Doctor of the Church.

The Blessed Mother stood to the right of the sun, and St. Joseph, holding the Child Jesus, stood to the left of the sun. No words were spoken. Msgr. Joseph A. Cirrincione, for over 40 years a profound student of the Fatima Apparitions & Prophecy, appears to be the first writer to study and analyze for Catholic readers just what is the significance and message of this singular apparition, especially with regard to what it symbolized about St. Joseph. In the process, he arrives at some profound and sobering conclusions, both for the Church and for the world, and he also contributes several original and extremely germane ideas to the general study of St. Joseph, such that the contents of this little booklet must become universally known among Catholics. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10745.jpg 0.13 St. Therese, The Little Flower John Beevers 9.00 10781 Saints 157 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 7 x 4.2 x 0.5 inches 895550350 The life of St. Therese is a lesson to all men of spiritual greatness to be achieved by perfect love of God and total consecration of all our actions, even the smallest, to His greatest honor and glory.

Liberal scholars assure us that there are presently in the world “two churches”, that the old one must be put to death before the new one can reign supreme, and that they are well along with their program. Our ancient liturgical tradition, the “Tridentine” Mass, has borne fruits of holiness and salvation for centuries, and it still bears these fruits when it is celebrated today. Keeping our ancient Catholic liturgical traditions is a key to keeping the Catholic Faith, without which it is impossible to please God, and saving our souls. Therefore, we are making this booklet available at the lowest possible prices for quantity distribution in order to reach as many people as possible. The issue is the salvation of souls and peace in the world. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10905.jpg 0.06 St. Thomas Aquinas: Universal Doctor of the Church St. Thomas Aquinas 2.00 10920 Saints 36 pages Book Booklet TAN Books 6 x 3.7 x 0.1 inches 895555131 Called the Angelic Doctor, both because of his soaring intellect and his innocence of life, St. Thomas Aquinas had long been the truest guide to understanding Catholic doctrine.

Madame Tangari (who is herself a remarkable person) describes how she met Padre Pio, how she became his spiritual daughter and how he guided her during the last eighteen years of his life. She tells stories of wonderful assistance that she and others received from Padre Pio regarding conversions, illness, bereavement, lost objects, broken marriage, irrational fear, business, getting out of Freemasonry, and of course, the spiritual life. Madame Tangari describes Padre Pio's amazing gift of easily solving difficult problems with a few special graces and favors from God and beginning life anew in happiness and peace.

In the process, he quotes the relevant passages in Church documents, making this a most valuable little handbook for those fighting the updating of the sanctuary in their parish church. Michael Davies also shows the striking similarity between the Protestant Reformers' destruction of altars in the 16th century and today's destruction of altars and sanctuaries by pretended reformers. This book is a real eye-opener and will become a powerful tool for the preservation of our holy Catholic traditions. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10938.jpg 0.06 The Incredible Catholic Mass Martin von Cochem 15.00 10964 The Mass/Liturgical Reform 450 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 7 x 4.2 x 1.1 inches 895556081 The Incredible Catholic Mass is truly an incredible book about the most reality in our midst - the Catholic Mass! No doubt fewer than ten percent of lay Catholics, before reading this book, would be aware of even ten percent of what it teaches. Written by a learned theologian, who was also a popular writer, The Incredible Catholic Mass is the fruit of a life time of study, plus, for this book alone, three years of intensive research in scripture, the declarations of the Church, the fathers, and Doctors, and famous spiritual writers. The result is a book of tremendous breadth and penetration - one which, thought highly theological, is not written in a dry, theological tone, but is aimed directly at the average reader, to show him what the Mass is in its essence and what great advantages and consolation it possesses for him - if he will just offer it with the priest in an informed way and with great devotion. For the Mass is none other than the re-enactment of the actual Sacrifice of Christ on Calvary-though in a sacramental and unbloody manner. Thus, in the Mass, we have Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself acting as Chief Priest and Primary Intercessor for us with the Heavenly Father. In other words, we have in the Mass an unfailing powerful Mediator, who will present us and our petitions in the best possible light to God the Father.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10964.jpg 0.75 Creation Rediscovered Gerard Keane 23.00 11033 Science & Religion 405 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.9 x 6 x 1 inches 895556073 This is a pivotal book for all Catholics today because it puts to rest once and for all the possibility for Evolution and it shows that we face the erroneous deduction and false policies of a host of deluded minds in both our Church and in our society. Not enough can be said for the importance of this book...to get the fundamentals right regarding our Origins, in order that the rest of our thought and all our actions are based upon the truth. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11033.jpg 1.44 Angels and Devils Joan Carroll Cruz 16.50 11051 Angels 290 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8 x 5.5 x 0.9 inches 895556383 This has to be the most thorough book about the Angels yet written in modern times. Here, the best-selling author Joan Carroll Cruz expounds upon the traditional definitions and delineations of the Angels, asking and answering virtually every conceivable question about them: e.g., what are they, how do we know they exist, when were they created, do they really have wings, do they know the future, do they know our thoughts, do they have names, do they have emotions, do they converse with each other, their speed, their assignments, how do we know we have Guardian Angels, are they appointed at conception or birth or Baptism, do non-Christians have Guardian Angels, etc., etc., etc. Then, after answering all these questions (and many more!) about the Angels, she does the same with regard to the devils. The salient quality about this book is that the author supports her answers with scores and scores of stories from the Saints and holy people  regarding the Angels and devils, exemplifying her answers with absorbing real-life episodes. After considering the devils, she enters a discussion on Masonry, Satanism, Witchcraft, the Occult, the New Age, Scientology, Psychics, Astrology, Tarot Cards, Crystal Balls, Reincarnation, Transcendental Meditation, Mind control, automatic writing, Ouija boards, etc. Easy to read, Angels and Devils covers a host of topics in an absorbing and informative manner. Among the many recent books about Angels, this has to be one of the very best, if not the very best yet. And it is definitely destined to be another Mrs. Cruz bestseller! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11051.jpg 0.88 The Life of Father De Smet, S.J. E. Laveille 18.00 11117 Biography 400 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8 x 5.5 x 0.9 inches 895556669 Fr. Pierre De Smet (1801-1873) is mentioned in U.S. history books almost as a footnote, but there was in the mid-19th century America no single person the American Indians trusted as they did this Jesuit Priest. He was more powerful than an army at a huge treaty conference of U.S. officials and the Western Indian nations near Laramie in 1851, and he was the chief negotiator at another, with the Sioux, in 1867 to a conference with the Indians. As a young Belgian seminarian headed for the American Mission Lands in 1823, he literally had to escape out of Europe to begin his apostolate, but in time-through his numerous letters to friends, which they published - he became the best known missionary in the world, and even met Pope Gregory XVI in private audience, and many of the most famous people of his time. Eight times he returned to Europe to raise funds and beg supplies for the Indians. He traveled through the wilderness in summer and winter, by every means of conveyance and on foot, braving hardships and often going without food for days. The anecdotes, adventures and quotes from the Indians make this a fabulous, captivating story. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11117.jpg 1.31 The Priest in Union with Christ Fr. Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange 18.00 11200 Clergy 267 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 0.9 inches 895557029 Today, when many priests and seminarians have been led to believe that they must personally design their own particular priesthood to meet the needs of the people, this book is of primary importance to help them to know they have been ordained to offer sacrifice to God for the glory of God and the salvation of souls. Written by one of the greatest theologians of the 20th century, Fr. Lagrange expounds magnificently upon the holiness and supernatural fruitfulness of the priestly apostolate. This is the classical approach to the education of those chosen souls who are called to represent Christ on earth. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11200.jpg 0.88 Liturgical Time Bombs in Vatican II Michael Davies 12.00 11297 The Mass/Liturgical Reform 98 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 0.4 inches 895557738 With his death in late 2004, this book becomes one of the very last written by the great British defender of Catholic tradition and especially the Latin Mass whose books and articles brought him international renown and to the presidency of Una Voce International. This book shows how the destruction of Catholic faith was brought about through changes in Catholic worship. The cover picture depicting 6 religious sisters in bare feet offering urns filled with incense at the slab of marble that is now the centerpiece of Los Angeles’ new cathedral perfectly illustrates where the new mass has taken us - into pagan rituals. Mr. Davies quotes many high ranking Catholic prelates who express alarm and concern - as Cardinal Ratzinger says, “I am convinced that the crisis in the Church that we are experiencing is to a large extent due to the disintegration of the liturgy.” http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11297.jpg 0.38 Hidden Treasure Holy Mass St. Leonard of Port Maurice 9.00 11300 The Mass/Liturgical Reform 123 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 7 x 4.3 x 0.3 inches 895550369 It takes a saint to write the most profound thoughts on the holiest subjects in Christendom, and this book is no exception.  The priest, elevating the sacred Host up to the Father is asking, in the name of His spotless Son, for gifts for sinful mankind that we do not deserve.  But the Father cannot resist the pleading of His Only-begotten.  The Mass is the potent prop that holds the world upon its base.  This small but powerful book ought to be in the hands of every Catholic in the world to encourage daily, or at least frequent attendance at the Holy Sacrifice.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11300.jpg 0.25 JMJ Novena Manual Fr.

Includes prayers for confession, examination of conscience, Holy Communion, Way of the Cross, Rosary, Benediction and many other wonderful surprises such as enrollment in the Purgatorial Society. A jewel of a prayerbook. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10348.jpg 0.13 Fatima & the Great Conspiracy Deirdre Manifold 7.95 10230 Apparitions & Prophecy 280 pages Book Paperback The Militia of Our Immaculate Mother 6.9 x 4.3 x 0.6 inches 951198106 This is an extraordinary presentation on how the international conspiracy to achieve a materialist world dictatorship is being pursued. The facade of ideologies and parliamentary politics is unerringly penetrated, to reveal the hidden mechanisms of world power politics, in all their Machiavellian subtlety. Deirdre Manifold, a Galway, Ireland homemaker, made it her study over a lifetime to unravel the peculiar and unique connections of the conspiracy, its roots in the 16th century, its present-day extent, with tentacles both in the Kremlin and in Wall Street. This book is challenging. One cannot ignore it. Either one must accept the analysis put forward or one must demonstrate where it is wrong. Now in its 6th edition. Imported from Ireland. You won't be able to put thus down until you are finished. Staggering information! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10230.jpg 0.31 Crossed Swords Concerning Peace Hamish Fraser & Christopher Derrick 10.00 11105 Contemporary Issues 19 pages Book Paperback The Remnant 8.5 x 5.4 x 0.1 inches N/A Short but powerful exchange of letters between two noted Catholic writers on the topics of what position clerics should take on nuclear weapons, and the place of Freemasonry in world affairs today.  Derrick holds that Catholic priests must oppose nuclear weapons under all circumstances, and that Masonry has had little part in the anti-Catholics movement of our society.  Fraser rebuts him brilliantly.  Must reading for anyone concerned with the Church's role in the world. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11105.jpg 0.13 X The Angels & Their Mission Jean Danielou 12.95 10030 Angels 114 pages Book Paperback Thomas More Publishing 8 x 5.2 x 0.4 inches 870610562 No book on Angels in print today can equal the knowledge and research contained in this magnificent work written by Father Danielou before he became a cardinal. The writings of the Fathers of the Church gave Father Danielou the wealth of information that reveals God's plan of creation and redemption in such details that every reader will be enthralled. Knowledge of the angels and their work, which is sadly missing in most educational programs today, explains so much about God's goodness, mercy and love, and soundly refutes the notion that some people are invincibly ignorant of the things necessary for salvation all the way up to the point of death. To believe in that kind of ignorance - of the things necessary for salvation - is to deny the role of the angels in our life. Contains the reasons for the fall of the bad angels, the wonderment of the angels over the Incarnation and their role after the Church was instituted. Enjoy the luminous chapters on the guardian angels, on the angels and the sacraments, the spiritual life, death and second coming. Learned and delightful reading not found anywhere else today. Fascinating insight into Gods marvelous plans. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10030.jpg 0.33 Belief, Baptism, and Body Membership Adam Miller 4.00 10978 Catholic Teaching 36 pages Book Booklet Tower of David Publications 8.5 x 5.4 x 0.1 inches N/A At last!

Today, more and more voices are calling out to Catholics to join the dismembered group of people referring to themselves as “Sedevacantists,” who hold that the Mass in invalid, the sacraments are invalid, and the priests administering the sacraments were not properly ordained. What is the lay person to make of all of this cacophony of conflicting ideas, leading to isolation and despair. Adam Miller makes sense of it all, and gives clear evidence of the flawed reasoning of those who would like to see you join them, outside the Church, out of which there is neither salvation, holiness, nor real happiness. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11355.jpg 0.44 Stories and Miracles of Our Lady of Good Success Therese Horvat 8.00 11189 Apparitions & Prophecy 110 pages Book Paperback Tradition In Action 8.2 x 5.1 x 0.3 inches 967216672 This is Book Two, a continuation of the 1999 edition of Our Lady of Good Success - Prophecies for Our Times by the same author. The marvel of this story is verified many times over, in prophecies already fulfilled, and in the discovery in 1906 of the whole and incorrupt body of Mariana de Jesus Torres to whom Our Lady revealed the coming crisis of the 20th century, for which Our Lady asked Mariana to do penance. The forward by Atila Sinke Guimaraes suggests that the 20th century phenomenon of massive defections from the priesthood and religious life which occurred following Vatican II must certainly have been the crisis foretold. But more must happen. A time is foretold when the forces of evil will so overwhelm the Church that faithful souls will believe all is lost. Then Our Lady will return and the victory will be attributed to her alone. Included are prayers to the Virgin of Good Success which are suggested for strength and protection. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11189.jpg 0.31 The Church Atila Guimaraes 20.00 11404 Catholic Teaching 320 pages Book Paperback Tradition In Action 9 x 6 x 0.7 inches 981979300 The foundation of the new thinking of Vatican II is the concept of the Church as Mystery. To capture this elusive mystery is as difficult as to padlock a ghost. Nonetheless, Guimaraes manages to do so. In a departure from all past Church history, the “spirit” of Vatican II becomes the leaven to unite all false confessions in a Pan-religion that fosters a Universal Republic. Other new concepts such as People of God – Poor Church– Sinning Church – Servant Church – Church of Love and Church Tolerant are being used to demolish the Church as it has always been defined. This is the last volume of the Collection 'Eli, Eli, Lamma Sabacthan'. It is the author's opinion that someday Vatican II will be declared null and void. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11404.jpg 1.19 The Endless Knot (Paperback) William L.

Much as he dislikes him, Archbishop Fulbright must turn to the only man capable of solving the crimes: Fr. John Baptist, the cop-turned-priest. But Fr. Baptist is a Latin Mass-saying traditionalist, while the Archbishop is…no better than he should be. With a cast of characters too real to be believed, this book will send the reader to his prayers --- and split his sides.

Why is someone stealing discarded religious objects - relics, altars, chalices - from the city's antique shops? And why on earth would modern-day grave robbers want to steal the remains of a 4th century Saint from New Golgotha Cemetery? In this fast-paced story, replete with a cast of memorable characters, a healthy dose of red herrings, and a generous helping of humour, there is always more than meets the eye, whether in means, motives, or methods. What with the hallowed history of the mystery genre, some readers might be tempted to suppose that it has all been done. In his Father Baptist series, William Biersach disproves this notion with a vengeance. These stories are fresh, intricate, vibrant, and a heck of a lot of fun!

For Catholics, history has an even higher purpose.  For them, history is the unfolding of God's Will in time, and the attempts of men either to conform themselves to or  resist that Will. But American Catholic historians have generally refrained from exploring their own national history with these principles, preferring instead to adopt the analysis of their non-Catholic colleagues, save when looking at purely Catholic topics (and sometimes not then). It is vital then, for Catholics, especially young Catholics, to have a good and proper understanding of their country's history. To exercise their patriotism, they must work for the conversion of the United States; to do this effectively, they must understand the forces and events which brought forth not only the religion of Americanism and the country itself, but also the sort of Catholicism which, in 300 years, failed so dismally to bring this conversion about. This book attempts to re-present the better known episodes of our history in accordance with the Faith, and to point up lesser-known details which will give factual proof of the truth of our Catholic history.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11397.jpg 2.38 Visionary Michael Hallford 19.95 11400 Fiction 488 pages Book Paperback Tumblar House 8.8 x 6 x 1.3 inches 979160065 A new thriller! The questions were on the minds of the media and the public alike. Were Nigel Fox's mystical powers legitimate? Could he heal the sick as some had claimed? Did his dreams really predict the future? Was he, as some had begun to call him, a human television broadcasting information from realities unseen to the human eye? Or was it all a hoax like so many other hoaxes that had been exposed before?No one quite knew the final answer. Then Jim Jacobson, a skeptical reporter from the Hadleyburg Times, became the first to be granted exclusive access to the mystic. Little did he know that within days he would be thrust into a world of conspiracy, lies and murder, where he would be confronted with a horrible secret, buried in his past, which would force him to reconsider every assumption he held about himself, the world and ultimately God. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11400.jpg 1.69 Desire and Deception: Is the Church Necessary? Charles Coulombe 11.95 11426 Catholic Teaching 176 pages Book Paperback Tumblar House 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.4 inches 984236511 The belief in Baptism of Desire has never been held by the Catholic Church and cannot be found anywhere in the binding teachings of its Magisterium. No theology has ever been developed to define it or support it. It is true that speculation for and against its existence has been made by Saints, and many catechisms today have erroneously included it, but if anyone ever tries to trace any authority for its existence back to Christ or His Church, they will be unable to do so. Where then did this idea of Baptism of Desire” come from? This valuable work shows the origin of the notion, and how a great change in the Church's philosophy was required for it's acceptance. Details how the concept has grown from St. Thomas Aquinas' explicit desire for baptism, through a vague implicit desire, to the Modernists' anonymous Christianity and universal salvation of today. Shows that the Church's credibility and necessity stands or falls with her claim to be the sole means of Salvation. Essential for students of the Salvation and Baptism controversy, whatever their opinion in the matter. Certainly the greatest wealth of historical detail (presented in a lively, sometimes humorous manner) on the topic ever assembled. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11426.jpg 0.56 The Passion: Photography from the Movie Mel Gibson 25.00 11269 Christ 143 pages Book Hardcover Tyndale House Publishers 11.4 x 9.1 x 0.9 inches 842373624 Actual photos from Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ, with text from the Douay-Rheims Bible.

The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.” -Thomas Jefferson “History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and its issuance.” -James Madison Despite the warnings given by presidents before him, president Woodrow Wilson approved the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, concentrating control of America’s money in the few men who dominate this private corporation. A few years later he reflected: “I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world—no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small amount of dominant men.” http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70002.jpg 0.25 A Look at World Youth Day 20.00 70004 DVD Set of 2 DVD’s contain shocking never-before-released footage of World Youth Day 2002 which demonstrates the event to be pervaded not by Catholicism, but by the rock’n’roll, pep-rally pop culture offered by the world, the flesh and the devil.  What you see will alarm and anger you.  As you watch the outrageous antics you will say to yourself, “Is this supposed to be Catholic?  How could any self-respecting Catholic parent send their sons and daughters to anything so scandalous?  Do parents know what World Youth Day is really like?”  Mr. Vennari explains the difference between true Catholic reverence vs. the outrageous behavior he witnessed and filmed; he asks, “What would Blessed Jacinta of Fatima think of this assembly?; he explains the lessons to be learned from Fatima and Lourdes vs. the riotous Charismatic sessions, and more. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70004.jpg 0.25 Incredible Creatures That Defy Evolution #1 20.00 70017 47 minutes DVD You are going to marvel at this program and its fascinating exploration of scientific marvels in the world of animals.

There cannot be a layman who would not be inspired by it, learn from it, and have his faith and devotion to tradition deepened by it. The fill was made by a professional camera crew to the highest possible technical standards. It was filmed in a parish church in Dublin, and the commentary by Kieron Wood, formerly religious correspondent for RTE, is masterly. While explaining the rubrics of the Mass in the clearest possible manner, his commentary manages not to obtrude upon the unfolding of the majesty and mystery of the traditional rite. -Michael Davies. Every DVD comes with a free booklet which follows the visual  in text. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70042.jpg 0.25 Grand Canyon - Monument to the Flood 20.00 70053 55 minutes DVD Five Creation Geologists conduct a personal tour, showing evidence of flood waters that cut gorges and carved valleys in this spectacular wonder of the world.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70053.jpg 0.25 The Case For a Creator 20.00 70056 60 minutes DVD What do the discoveries of modern biology, physics, cosmology, and astronomy really tell us about the origin of life and the universe? When objectively considered, does contemporary scientific evidence point toward or away from a supernatural Creator? http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70056.jpg 0.25 Catholic History of England 75.00 70060 DVD That a great nation like England should have given to the world and to history a witness so uncompromising, serene and heroic, is a fact which should fill the students of history with admiration. Brilliant cinematography and classical music form the setting for this history, beginning with the ice age and first traces of habitation by Celts, Romans, Saxons, Angles and Danes. The oldest records of archeology are shown, including Stone Henge and Hadrian's Wall.  St. Edmund, King Alfred, Albert the Great, King Canute and King Edward add luster to the English monarchy, ruling with holiness, building castles and abbeys which are still a part of the English landscape.  In East Anglia, Our Lady appears to a woman in the year 1061, asking that she build a replica of the Holy House of Nazareth.  Miraculously accomplished, it becomes a place of pilgrimage for the nation.  During the persecution of Henry VIII and the reign of terror, Walsingham is ransacked and the famous statue burnt at Chelsey.  There follows 400 years of vicious persecution of Catholics in England. In 1829 the Catholic Emancipation Act allows Catholics to enter public life for the first time in four centuries.  Tape 4 shows how for the first time in the history of the Church the Holy Father is pictured visiting England, where he canonizes the 40 English Martyrs.  Unity of all nations has been fixed in heaven following the present turmoil and Our Lady's era of Peace will be her triumph.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70060.jpg 0.25 Catholic History of France 75.00 70061 4 discs DVD Filmed on location in France and Rome, this collection of 4 videos was two years in production and provides almost 5 hours of enjoyment and instruction.  Here is a history of France told entirely from a Catholic point of view, showing how the Faith was brought to the shores of the country by Mary Magdalene and Lazarus who brought with them the bones of St. Anne.  Tells of the many miracles that have been a part of French history from the beginning.  Superb cinematography, haunting, inspirational classical and religious music provides  a serene setting for the telling of the extraordinary grace poured into this nation by God from the beginning of its history.  The spiritual destiny of this blessed nation has yet to be fulfilled according to prophecies relating to the end times.  This magnificent story will be thoroughly enjoyed by armchair travelers and pilgrims who may never have the opportunity to visit the lovely French countryside and village churches filled with rich history.  The cave where the Magdalen lived is still open to pilgrims. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70061.jpg 0.25 The Rock of Truth 23.95 70064 1 hr. DVD “Our Lady of Revelation” appeared in Rome saying, “Come into my Son’s true Church,” in one of the little-known Apparitions & Prophecy of the 20th century. Also includes the history of the founding of the Church by Sts. Peter and Paul. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70064.jpg 0.25 Left to Tell 20.00 70084 90 min. DVD Immaculee Ilibagiza tells her personal story of the miraculous survival she and others experienced during the genocide visited upon Rwanda. Her book of the same title has swept around the world awakening awareness of the intense horror of that period of history and the profound peace and forgiveness she experienced through praying the Rosary and giving her whole life to God in a relationship of profound love and subjection to the Divine Will. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/70084.jpg 0.25 Adventures from the Book of Virtues 30.00 70088 200 min.

Topics include the Oath Against Modernism - Pius X's words on the duty of a Pope - a simple, easy-to-understand explanation of Modernism - the emergence of the New Theology - the gradual laxity against Modernism culminating in the post-conciliar crises on faith - much more! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.13 Vatican II and the Components of Liberalism John Vennari 35.00 80019 8 CDs Audio CD Excellent series of talks prepared for classroom and home use on 8 CD's.  Bl. Pope Pius IX said, Liberal Catholics are the worst enemies of the Church.  In the 1950's, Msgr. Clifford Fenton enumerated 6 components of liberal thought based on the dogma, outside the Church there is no salvation, which dogma is universally denied by liberals. Mr. Vennari names the leading liberal Catholics who exerted their influence during Vatican II, and shows how their warped thinking has affected all levels of clergy and laity at work in the Church today.  Without understanding these six lines of attack used by liberals, souls will be severely handicapped in their understanding of the present enormous crisis of Faith which has cast a fog over the entire church.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.31 Literature of Wonder Charles Coulombe 10.00 80021 1 hour Audio CD Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror are subjects now manipulated by media moguls who aim to dehumanize (even demonize) our children. Mr. Coulombe explores how the Catholic Faith and Christendom once afforded a healthy balance to such literature of wonder and how they had been utilized to promote salutary truths of faith and morality.  He also demonstrates how they degenerated in English-speaking countries, under Puritan/Calvinist influence, eventually evolving into fantasy religions! - such as Mormonism and Christian Science.  Young people today need their attention brought back to the eternal truths that were traditionally taught through fantasy and science fiction.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Miraculous Life & Prophecies Sr. Elena Aiello 10.00 80022 Audio CD The story of Sister Elena Aiello, whose miraculous life and prophecies have been approved by the Catholic Church.  She lived in Italy as a victim soul and miraculously experienced a bloody suffering in union with Christ's Passion on Fridays in Lent every Year from 1923 until her death.  She also had, in her room, a manifestation of the bleeding face of Christ.  Saints appeared to her and guided her.  In the 1950's she predicted a great crisis in the priesthood.  One of the most chilling of these prophecies is the vision of a red flag waving over the Vatican. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Mud Houses and Modern Men John Vennari 10.00 80023 Audio CD This lecture was delivered to a group of high school boys in Northwestern United States. In a serious but entertaining way, Mr. Vennari, who used to play music for a living (including pop and rock and roll music) explains why he does not allow rock and roll in his house. Basing his words on what great thinkers such as Aristotle, Plato and Boethius have said about music, he explains why rock and roll is disordered music that is harmful to both soul and body. Listeners have already hailed this as the best, most effective talk about rock and roll they have ever heard. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Blessed Abbot Marmion and the Spreading of the Faith John Vennari 10.00 80024 Audio CD One of the greatest spiritual directors of the last century, whose cause for canonization is pending, and whose body is totally incorrupt, is put forward as the master of demonstrating how Christ is truly the life of the soul. He shows clearly how one's spiritual life was generated at the instant of water baptism and continues to live vibrantly when nourished by Holy Communion.    This doctrine is necessary to avoid the modern pitfalls of liberalism and syncretism.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Who Was Responsible for Liberal Hijacking of VII? John Vennari 10.00 80025 Audio CD Three major activities took place immediately prior to the Council that virtually guaranteed the liberal takeover after the Council opened.  Contains some shocking information. Discusses whether Vatican II can be truly interpreted in light of tradition.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 How to Recognize the Ongoing Revolution John Vennari 10.00 80026 Audio CD Modernists are now hiding behind a conservative veneer.  A recent Vatican document on the Church gives the appearance  of restating aspects of traditional doctrine, but actually advances two of the most revolutionary aspects of Vatican II and is conspicuous in what it does not say.  The term, hermeneutics of continuity is nothing more than Modernism in action. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Why the Mass Exodus to Protestantism? John Vennari 10.00 80028 Audio CD What can be done about the takeover of Protestantism in South America and elsewhere since the Council?  Demonstrates why the Bible-alone notion is false.  Protestantism is also making inroads into our country and needs to be stopped in its tracks. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Evolution: Enemy of Education John Vennari 10.00 80029 Audio CD The false science of evolution, for which there is no fossil evidence, is responsible for undermining the facts of God's creation, Adam & Eve and Original Sin.  It negates the very reason for the Incarnation and has done more damage to Catholics clear thinking than any other modern error.  Communism, naturalism and secular humanism are all based on evolution and could not survive without it.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Chivalry William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80031 1 hour 20 minutes Audio CD If Chivalry is dead, as we're so often told, what exactly is it that died? Or did it? Far from just a code of polite behavior, Chivalry was actually a courageous way of Catholic life, an avowed state which involved the taking of oaths and which was considered for centuries to be a source of Grace for those men brave enough to follow it. What grand oaths the Knights of old took! Furthermore, this talk includes an examination of that of that mysterious search known as the Quest for the Holy Grail. Finally, a thoughtful presentation of how Chivalry might be revived in our time?indeed, how it must be lived by every Catholic in the face of such cultural, social, and moral opposition as we face in our day. A must for young men and women aspiring to be virtuous Catholics. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Americanism William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80032 2 hours Audio CD The American Revolution continues to impact American society up to the present in ways we take for granted. In this brilliant discussion, Biersach and Coulombe expose the anti-Catholicism of America’s founding Fathers, and how their sentiment permeates the very air we breathe. In this collection, our duo discuss Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Cardinal Gibbons, the American Confederacy, the Intolerable Acts, and (of course) Vatican II. Is Catholicism compatible with democracy? How do the principles of the Revolution affect us today? Find out in this entertaining audio set. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Evolution William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80033 2 hours Audio CD How this bizarre theory was foisted upon the public as scientific fact, its effects on the teachings of the Church, and what Catholics are required to believe with respect to the account of Creation in Genesis.  http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Purgatory William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80034 2 hours Audio CD A subject which has been all but completely ignored in the modern ethos, but which demands our attention. What exactly does the traditional Church teach about Purgatory, and upon what authority does She base Her explanation? What have Saints, Popes and councils had to say about this place of cleansing in preparation for Heaven? In what ways did the Council of Trent specify that Martin Luther had erred in this regard? Are all ghosts demons, or could they be souls trapped in Purgatorial fire? What exactly are Indulgences and how do we access them? All this and more is discussed in lively detail. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 UFO's William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80035 2 hours Audio CD Has our planet been visited by extraterrestrials? Are the stories of alien abductions and flying saucer kidnappings possibly true? Is talk of life on distant planets merely speculation, mindless drivel, or perhaps a threat to our precious Catholic Faith? What really happened at Roswell, New Mexico? What does the Church Herself teach about life on other planets? Did a Pope indeed make a pronouncement on this very topic? As far-fetched as some of these questions may sound, the fact is that the majority of people in the United States today do believe that our planet has been visited?and continues to be frequented?by beings from other worlds. Our children are exposed to these ideas all the time and it does have an impact on their perception of the Catholic Faith, the Fall, and Salvation. To be forewarned is to be forearmed, and in this talk our two heroes have rolled up their sleeves and come up with some amazing insights. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Syllabus of Errors William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 8.00 80036 1 hour Audio CD The Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX, issued in 1864, is an incisive document that pinpoints the nature of many errors (evils) that modern man wholeheartedly embraces. Thus, the document reemphasizes infallible Church teachings that have been clouded over time. This is one of our most challenging CDs because some of the errors which Piux IX lists are some of the most deeply-rooted beliefs held by Americans. Don't be surprised if some of the things on this list are concepts which you've believed in! As Mr. Coulombe states: What you have here is a dogmatic examination of conscience. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Council of Florence William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80037 2 hours Audio CD At the time of this council Christendom was in turmoil. Having just settled the perplexing problem of three claimants to the papacy, many clerics in positions of influence were rallying to the erroneous opinion that a council was perhaps more powerful than a pope, leaving many good Catholics confused. In addition, abuses in the administration of the Sacraments were rampant, heresies regarding the Holy Trinity were proliferating, and the eastern churches were looking for theological excuses so that they could execute, their politically-motivated desire to split from Rome. In the midst of all this turmoil there was great temptation to compromise doctrine for the sake of unity. The Council of Florence, however, stood firm against the tide, emplaning the Catholic Faith to a fractured world in precise, splendidly-working definitions. A more beautiful explanation of the Seven Sacraments would be hard to find, and any thoughts that Salvation might be possible outside the Church are put to rest. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Out of Context William L Biersach 16.00 80038 2 hours Audio CD It has been said that rat poison is 99 percent nutritious - it's the 1 part of strychnine that does in a rat. Some religious books contain mostly good information, but also contain a few paragraphs of sinister misinformation that can send a trusting reader way off his rightful spiritual course. The same can be said of catechisms, movies, secular books, and the accounts of recent Marian Apparitions & Prophecy. It is also common for verses to be taken from the Bible out of context and used against the precepts of the Catholic Faith. In an attempt to alert sincere Catholics to the peril of uncritical reading and viewing, Mr. Biersach presents us with excerpts from a variety of sources and shows how their immediate meaning can be misleading until they are reinserted back into their overall context. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Jansenism William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 8.00 80039 1 hour Audio CD Jansenism is a heresy which few Americans are aware of. However, its effects permeate our lives, politically and socially as well as spiritually. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Angels William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80040 1 hour Audio CD Angels are very popular these days, taking the spotlight in art, song, literature, movies, and sitcoms. But are Angels anything like these commercial portrayals, or are they metaphysically and substantially something entirely other? Our rambunctious speakers take us on an intriguing exploration of the nature and purpose of these holy and in some cases, not at all holy beings which were created in the beginning to reflect the qualities of Almighty God. A must if you have friends who drink tea from cups shaped like chubby Cherubs and are fond of the phrase, God loves you just the way you are. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Doomsday William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80041 2 hours Audio CD An examination of what the Catholic Church actually teaches with respect to the End of the World versus the spurious and sometimes absurd speculations held by many of the faithful and the not-so-faithful. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Anticlericalism William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80042 2 hours Audio CD An examination of recent and historical anticlerical movements in the political sector, followed by a frank assessment of the clergy of our day, and finally a sobering appraisal of the devout Catholic's duties and obligations with respect to them. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 False Apparitions & Prophecy William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 16.00 80043 1 hour 20 minutes Audio CD Another set of two talks.

Benediction, which traces its origin back to the thirteenth century, focuses our minds on the Mystery of the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament in a profound and soul-searching way. Adorned with songs composed by St. Thomas Aquinas and enhanced with clouds of incense, this devotion scandalizes unbelievers and captivates all man and women of good will. How sad it is that in our times this time-honored ritual is gradually disappearing, and even those priests who try to keep it alive do not have the training to do it properly. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Satan William L Biersach & Charles Coulombe 32.00 80047 5 hours 20 minutes Audio CD Be he subtle or Flagrant, Satan is out to get us any way that he can. It doesn?t matter to him if we go to Hell for impure acts or uncharitable behavior, for practicing witchcraft or embracing heresy - just so we turn away from God and embrace evil. So many are the wiles of the serpent and so sneaky his approach to human frailty, that our zany lads have given three continuous talks expounding on the various traps and snares that Satan lays for sincere Catholics. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.19 Creation Charles Coulombe 8.00 80050 1 hour Audio CD The story of us - as told from the beginning - by famed historian, Charles  A.

These communist and socialist principles were embraced by Barack Obama, who was the shining star in the school for radicals conducted in Chicago where basic communist cells were being formed and men educated to lead them.

Mr. Vennari defines the word “hermeneutic” and shows that it is being used, not to preserve tradition, but to “canonize” Vatican II while pretending to be faithful to the Solemn Magisterium. The Oath Against Modernism commanded that all truths of the Catholic Faith must be held “in the same meaning and in the same explanation” as has always been taught. (Are clown masses a result of tradtion or Vatican II hermenutics?)  No matter how well-intentioned the conservative veneer over Vatican II may be, it is simply another form of Modernism which was condemned formally. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 Global Warming Fraud John Vennari 10.00 80054 1 hour Audio CD Here is the scientific fraud of “man-made” global warming explained in layman's language. John tells how Green ideologues want to dictate through force of law your mobility, the size of your house, how far you can travel and how many children you will be allowed to have. This exposee tells the connection between Environmentalist and Communist ideology and how they have merged to pull this gigantic fraud over the eyes of the United Nations, our government and all future generations. These pagan environmentalists have even bamboozled our highest Catholic churchmen into promoting the “Green” agenda. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 How to Apostasy Proof Your Mind John Vennari 10.00 80055 1 hour Audio CD The baptized Catholic has the right to the true Faith and the true Mass, without any conditions attached to them. The bulk of this presentation centers on the fact that the liturgical reforms of Vatican II were never intended to be a true representation of the Catholic theology of the Mass as codified by Session XXII of the Council of Trent, but to take a new direction. Quotes at length a Protestant clergyman who in 1963 was overjoyed with Vatican II's Scema on the Liturgy, as the proposals of the Schema on the Liturgy “were in fact points which we (Protestants) ourselves accepted four hurdred years ago.” Discusses the modernist liturgical movement prior to Vatican II and the underhanded way in which the liturgical Consilium maneuvered itself during and after the Council; and the components of liberal Catholicism intrinsic to Vatican II's documents that continues to wreak great havoc on souls and on the Church worldwide. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/CD.jpg 0.06 A Treatise on the Love of God St. Francis de Sales 30.00 10965 Spiritual Life 555 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 1.7 inches 895555263 In writing this book St. Francis sought to bring men to a deeper knowledge of the origin and fulfillment of all devotion.

The Devil is the Father of Lies and lying is the way of those who do the work of the Devil. This book traces the secret activities of Freemasonry in America and uncovers the lie that Masonry is a harmless fraternal organization of men who spend their time doing innocent things such as holding parades, dinners and circuses, or conducting business deals during card games. Instead, we find these men doing the work of the Devil by conducting an unrelenting warfare against Christ and His Church. Their hatred of the Catholic Church in America is exposed in detail with the decisions of Supreme Court Judges, Presidents, Congressmen and Senators who were Masons.

Here in bold, living colors Belloc sketches the destructive results of the greed, lust, weakness, tenacity, blindness, fear and indecision of 23 famous men and women of the Protestant Reformation period, analyzing their strengths, mistakes, motives and deeds which changed the course of history. Belloc cites Anne Boleyn, not the weak-willed Henry VIII as the pivot figure of the English Reformation, for it was her iron will to be Queen which started the movement. He describes Cromwell, the monastery looter and destroyer, as the true creator of the English Reformation. He shows how the crafty William Cecil accomplished the task of digging up the Catholic Faith by the roots and crushing out the Mass from English soil. Belloc also highlights the fatal error of Cardinal Richelieu in putting France before Catholicism and thus torpedoing Europe's last great chance of keeping Christendom united. Belloc warns that this breakup of Christendom may still destroy our Christian civilization. Even those who think they do not like history will be unable to put this book down.

Anthony Alexander 15.00 10135 Theology/Philosophy 246 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 0.7 inches 895554453 Catholic students lose their faith at colleges - Catholic and non-Catholic alike - in record numbers today. At an age naturally given to questioning the values they have been raised with, college students are often all too open to seemingly rational assaults on the Faith. In this book, former John Carroll University Professor Fr. Alexander presents air-tight, rational arguments for Catholicism in a manner sure to appeal to any university or upper level High School student sincerely interested in finding out the truth about God, the Universe, and his or her self. Starting with the existence of God, Fr. Alexander goes on to show that God founded a specific religion, that that religion is the one called Catholic, and that everyone has an obligation to join the Catholic religion. This book is essential armor for any intelligent young Catholic going off to University, or whose Faith is threatened in High School. It is also good for non-Catholic college students making inquiry about ultimate truths. Ideal for Godparents and everyone who wants to explain the Faith to others. Ironclad logic! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10135.jpg 0.76875 Crisis of Civilization Hilaire Belloc 16.00 10147 Contemporary Issues 208 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.5 x 0.6 inches 895554623 Our choice, says Belloc, is Catholicism or chaos, and the crisis... does not permit of indefinite delay. He shows in this work that ever since the disaster of the Protestant Reformation, our civilization has been coming apart. Catholicism built the Western World - from Roman times through the Dark Ages to the High Middle Ages - but the false doctrine and social philosophy of Protestantism, based on Calvin, is causing a steady and continuing breakdown of that world. Belloc shows the Reformation's evil results in the economic sphere, through the dissolving of Catholic restraints on usury and on unbridled competition. He states that Calvin opened the door to the domination of the mind by money. Belloc concludes that the return of Catholicism is the only remedy for our crumbling world, because our basic principles of civilization are Catholic in origin and only by being energized and guided by the Faith will they - and our civilization - continue to be what they are and continue to help poor, fallen mankind in this world. Belloc maintains that we are drifting back towards slavery and only by re-embracing Catholicism will disaster be averted. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10147.jpg 0.6625 Cure D'Ars Fr.

Throughout our life, every time we pray the Hail Mary prayer, we ask Our Lady to pray for us at the hour of our death, for it is then that the devils intensify their efforts to cause a soul to die rejecting God's grace in despair. Mother Mary Potter urges all to practice a devotion for the dying whereby through the Maternal Heart of Our Blessed Mother in Heaven we work to save souls from Hell in the form of our prayers, sacrifices and good works. Our soul's last hope in life is the special graces offered to us through Mary to help us persevere.

John Croiset S.J. 16.50 10177 Spiritual Life 343 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 1 inches 895553341 Immediately after his appointment, BishopStadler of Sarajevo, Yugoslavia, announced his intentions to publish this tremendous treasure after it had been missing for almost two centuries, thus fulfilling a prophecy made by St. Margaret Mary. She foretold that this inspired writing would be forgotten for a time, but then would come to light again. The author was the spiritual director of St. Margaret Mary and therefore was 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 and the centrality of the Sacred Heart devotion for our lives as true Catholics. This great work was actually commissioned by Our Lord Himself through St. Margaret Mary, and as Father Croiset neared completion of it, the Saint told him that Our Lord said it was so completely in accord with His wishes that it would never be necessary to make any change in it. Later she revealed that it was Our Lord Himself who had inspired him with the ideas in this book and that it was so pleasing to Him that none other but Himself could have arranged everything so much to His wishes. This magnificent work is a revelation to all just why so few of us become great saints and why so few, despite going frequently to the Sacraments, fail really to grow in the life of grace and make great progress in the spiritual order. The best there is on this important devotion! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10177.jpg 1 Divine Favors Granted to St Joseph Pere Binet 9.00 10184 Saints 176 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 5.9 x 4 x 0.5 inches 089555187X The Divine Favors Granted to St. Joseph sets forth the exalted stature of St. Joseph in the Communion of Saints. Chosen by God for the incomparable vocation of spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and foster father of Our Lord Jesus Christ, St. Joseph received magnificent divine graces and favors not granted even to the Old Testament Patriarchs, to Sts. Peter and Paul, St. John the Baptist, St. John the Evangelist, or the glorious Archangels. Known as the most humble of men, St. Joseph nonetheless received from Almighty God the authority to command both Our Lady and the Son of God Himself, and in Heaven he continues to have great intercessory power with God. Privileged to share in the intimate family life of Jesus and Mary, St. Joseph daily grew in grace and in the virtues of faith, purity, patience, humility, fidelity, obedience, and devotion. The Divine Favors Granted to St. Joseph shows how this greatest of the Patriarchs is the patron of all Christians and how wonderfully he answers prayers; plus, it gives many of the ways of honoring him. It will inspire a profound devotion to St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church and spiritual leader of us all. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10184.jpg 0.25 Dolorous Passion Bl.

These singularly memorable accounts of Our Lord's agony and suffering during His Passion cannot help but nourish the piety of every reader and inspire many to a better and perhaps lasting change of life.

Belloc was a prophet and foresaw our troubled times. In this work he turns his erudition, robust common sense and supreme confidence in the Catholic Faith to a host of topics, countering the official anti-Catholic views so prevalent in our century. Topics include Usury Legend, The (Catholic) Historical Counter-Attack, The Faith through the Press, The Catholic Church and the Modern State, The Schools, The Faith and Industrial Capitalism, The Conversion of England, The Revival of Latin, The New Paganism, The Two Cultures of the West, etc. Belloc realized keenly that everything in the world revolves around the struggle for or against true doctrine. This book clarifies issues and sheds brilliant light on Belloc's many themes stated in his other books. Many of the topics in this work are absolutely essential to understanding where we are today. A classic and a tonic sorely needed by Catholics! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10204.jpg 0.75 Eucharistic Miracles Joan Carroll Cruz 16.50 10210 Eucharist 305 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.5 x 1 inches 895553031 Over 35 famous, amazing, historical miracles of the Eucharist: Hosts that have turned to visible flesh when consecrated, Hosts which have bled. Hosts which have become hard as stone upon being received by a person in mortal sin, Hosts which have levitated or manifested their hidden presence by mysterious lights, etc. Covering a period from Lanciano, Italy (8th century) to Stich, Bavaria (1970) many of these miracles came about after sacrilege had been committed against the Holy Eucharist. Gives information on official investigations made into these events and tells where these miraculous Hosts can be seen and adored. Also describes the extraordinary Eucharistic phenomena in the lives of many saints: saints who lived on the Eucharist alone, raptures and ecstasies during Holy Communion, miraculous receptions, levitation, visions, locutions, and phenomena of tears, fire and light - plus the history of Eucharistic adoration, including Benediction, Corpus Christi, and perpetual adoration. A powerful shot in the arm to the sagging faith of Catholics today. Firmly buttresses the loftiest mystery of the Catholic religion. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10210.jpg 1 Evidence of Satan in the Modern World Fr. Leon Cristiani 16.00 10214 Satan 210 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.5 x 0.6 inches 895550326 The Devil's deepest wile is to persuade us that he does not exist. Using Baudelaire's well known phrase as a starting point, Msgr. Cristiani has amassed convincing proof that the Devil does indeed exist and that he continues to manifest his presence in the modern world, no less than in earlier times. Because he documents with scrupulous care the still present phenomena of diabolical infestation, possession and temptation, his book has become one of the best ever written on the subject.

The dreams frequently featured the actual boys at the Oratory; however, their value goes far beyond this, since they bring to life the realities of the Catholic faith in a way that is absolutely unique! In these dreams St. John Bosco saw his boys facing fearsome and disgusting animals or involved in battles, banquets or journeys which would reveal to him the state of their souls. The boys eagerly anticipated the narration of new dreams, and for many boys the dreams resulted in the rectifying of bad Confessions, recovery of Sanctifying Grace, preservation from sin and even holy deaths. Catholics who may not be inspired by abstract spiritual writings will be able to see in these dreams the evil of impurity, disobedience, gluttony, pride, bad Confessions, sacrilegious Communions, etc., as well as the reality of Hell and the danger of flirting with temptations. Readers of all ages will be admonished, entertained and inspired by these Forty Dreams of one of the greatest and most beloved Saints of the Church!

Martin von Cochem 10.00 10243 Spiritual Life 223 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6 x 4 x 0.6 inches 089555321X It has ever been the practice of the Catholic Church to recommend to her spiritual children the meditation on man's four last things-Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell. For, keeping these sobering aspects of human destiny ever before our eyes, we will be that much less likely to fall into mortal sin and thus be lost eternally. Father Martin von Cochem, famous for his beautiful treatise on the Mass, reviews in this powerful little book the many facts we should all meditate on. Like a draught of strong spiritual medicine, this meditation will stimulate our souls to repentance. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10243.jpg 0.3125 Golden Arrow Dorothy Scallan 15.00 10266 Biography 233 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.5 x 0.7 inche 895553899 Few books contain as important a message as does this autobiography and revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter (1816-1848) about the powerful devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus. The express purpose of this devotion is to offset the blasphemies and outrages of Revolutionary men (the Communists) - through whom God is allowing the world to be chastised for its disbelief- as well as of atheists and freethinkers plus, for blasphemy and profanations of Sundays by Christians. Specifically, this devotion is the divine tool given by God to defeat Communism and an unfailing method for individuals in appealing to God through prayer. Our Lord gave Sr. Mary a short but powerful prayer called The Golden Arrow by which a person can shoot directly into the Heart of God. The editor of the book states that this devotion brought St. Therese to her great sanctity. Contains the 9 powerful promises attached to this special devotion. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10266.jpg 0.5 History of Antichrist Fr. P.

It is a tragic depiction of the loss of millions upon millions of souls to the Catholic Faith, but very worth reading for getting the entire story straight - and all by a Protestant writer. Thus was written between 1824 and 1827 and has been reprinted many times by Catholic publishers because it gives the true and usually untold story of the Protestant Revolt in England during the 16th century. Even though a Protestant, the author shows that England was better when it was Catholic. For example, during Catholic times there was greater prosperity, no penury, no poor laws, almost no crime, no income tax, and a greater national military strength. Whereas, with the Reformation came the destruction of the monasteries, the driving of countless thousands of tenant farmers from the lands they had formerly rented (virtually in perpetuity and at cheap rents) from the Catholic monasteries, the creation of a vast number of homeless poor, the subsequent poor laws, income tax, a diminished military capacity, despotism by the monarchs, the Puritan Revolt, dictatorship of Cromwell, an increase of taxation, the rise of the national debt, and finally the American Revolution. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10289.jpg 1.2 The Holy Will of God Fr.

Sheen 17.95 10381 Christ 480 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.5 x 5.5 x 1.3 inches 895557878 Life of Christ has been hailed as the most eloquent of Fulton Sheen's writings, the fruit of many years of dedication and research. Filled with compassion and brilliant scholarship, his recounting of the birth, life, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Christ is as dramatic and moving as the subject Himself. Here is a passionate portrait of the God-Man, the teacher, the healer, and most of all the Savior whose promise has sustained humanity for two millennia. It was not so much that His birth cast a shadow on His life, and led to His death, writes Sheen. It was rather that the Cross was there from the beginning, and it cast its shadow backward to his birth. With his customary insight and reverence, the author interprets the scripture and describes Christ not only in historical perspective but in exciting and contemporary terms; he sees in Christ's life modern parallels and timeless lessons. Sheen probes the hearts of many prominent New Testament figures?Joseph and Mary, Peter and the disciples, Herod, Pilate, et al.?shedding new light on age-old events. The whole adds up to a masterful study: a faithful blending of philosophy, history, and biblical exegesis. This book has been a revelation to countless readers, as well as a source of inspiration and guidance. Every Christian should read and own this vivid retelling of the greatest life ever lived. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10381.jpg 0.9 Light & Peace R.P.

And the Christian lives in the midst of crosses as the fish lives in the sea. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10400.jpg 0.35 Liturgical Shipwreck Michael Davies 3.00 10409 Contemporary Issues 42 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6 x 3.7 x 0.1 inches 895555352 This booklet reviews the results of the New Mass upon the Catholic Church and concludes very firmly, very decidedly that the Church must return to her ancient liturgy in order to reverse the liturgical shipwreck currently underway, with its attendant destruction of faith. Quoting numerous authorities, Mr. Davies demonstrates that the New Mass in not a restyled Traditional Mass, that the Vatican II Fathers in no way authorized the destruction of the Roman Rite, that the New Mass constitutes a liturgical “revolution” and that the results of the New Mass are a “debacle” of the first order. Though admittedly brief, this is one of Michael Davies finest writings and is certain to interest, inform, and challenge every Catholic who reads it. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10409.jpg 0.05 Love, Peace & Joy St. Gertrude 10.00 10422 Spiritual Life 203 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6 x 3.9 x 0.6 inches 895552558 Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus according to St. Gertrude. Translated by The Very Rev. Andre Prevot. Our Lord chose St. Gertrude to be the Messenger or Herald of Divine Love, and He guided her as she wrote, so that through her He might make known the secrets of His Heart, and thus draw many hearts to Himself. Jesus said to St. Gertrude, I wish your writings to be for later times a proof of the tenderness of My Heart, and I will make them a source of grace to many souls. While you write, I will keep your heart near to My Heart, and will instill into it, drop by drop, what you are to say. By following these actual words of Our Lord to St. Gertrude in our daily life, a soul will become enriched with incomparable merit, and will be filled, even in this life, with the profound peace and joy which come from loving the Sacred Heart of Jesus. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10422.jpg 0.25 The Martyrs of the Coliseum A.J.

Tells the story of St. Ignatius of Antioch, Sts. Chrysanthus and Daria, St. Prisca, St. Lawrence, St. Lucy, St. Agnes, the Persian Kings, the Roman General, the young Bishop, etc., etc. This book brings home in vivid detail what the early Roman Martyrs were forced to suffer and demonstrates vividly Tertullian's famous observation: The blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians. Sobering reading for our day when we realize what a terrible price has been paid for the religious freedom we so take for granted. Thrilling stories of the early Roman martyrs. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10433.jpg 0.9 Meditation Prayer on Mary Immaculate Padre Pio 2.50 10448 Mary 32 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 7 x 4.2 x 0.1 inches 895550997 One of Padre Pio's few writings, plus a brief sketch of his life.

Wilfrid Parsons 13.00 10456 History 304 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6.9 x 4.1 x 0.9 inches 895553309 Mexican Martyrdom is a series of true stories of the terrible anti-Catholic persecutions which took place in Mexico in the 1920's. Told by the Jesuit priest, Fr. Wilfrid Parsons, these stories are based upon cases he had seen himself or that had been described to him personally by Mexican people who had undergone the atrocities of those times. Amazing to contemporary readers will be the fact that a full-fledged, purposeful persecution of the Church, complete with martyrdom for several thousand people and some 50 Catholic priests, took place in our very century and just south of our own border. It was during this time that the famous Jesuit priest, Fr. Miguel Pro, was martyred before a firing squad. From the conquest of Mexico by Cortes and his Spanish soldiers in 1521 to the Mexican Independence from Spain in 1821, exactly 300 years elapsed, and during those 300 years Spain brought European culture to Mexico and created in that country a great Catholic civilization?to rival that of any nation in Europe. However, when the Great Mexican Revolution began in 1810, this flourishing country began to wither and die. That Revolution was not to end until 1928 with the end of the brutal rule of President Plutacro Elias Calles. (And even then it was not really finished, but continues to this day.) It is basically the years from 1926 to 1935 that form the background for this book. Although the Great Mexican Revolution was always anti-Catholic and that from its very beginning and in a country 97% Catholic?the persecution of the Church reached its apex under Calles in the 1920's. The heroic resistance of Mexican Catholics during this persecution will be a great inspiration to Catholics today, and Mexican Martyrdom proves that hatred for the Catholic Church exists even in our times and can still flare into open and bloody persecution in this our so-called enlightened 20th century. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10456.jpg 0.3 Miraculous Images of Our Lord Joan Carroll Cruz 16.50 10459 Christ 235 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 0.7 inches 895554968 42 remarkable, true accounts about miraculous manifestations of Our Lord from various parts of the globe, richly illustrated by actual photos.

Emil Neubert 8.00 10482 Christ 111 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 5.9 x 3.9 x 0.4 inches 895553384 Written in the form of provocative instructions from Jesus and Mary, this small book beautifully sets forth the path of perfect imitation of Christ through perfect imitation of His filial love for His Mother Mary. Based on the teachings of the saintly founder, Father Chaminade (1761-1850), who did much to restore the Church in France after the French Revolution, this little work by Fr. Neubert shows the great desire of Jesus that all Christian hearts and souls love, trust, honor and obey His Mother. Here is a complete and practical program of life, uniting the soul both to Jesus and Mary. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10482.jpg 0.3125 My Sister St. Therese Celine Martin 11.00 10966 Saints 249 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6.7 x 4.2 x 0.6 inches 895555980 This famous little classic by Celine Martin is a wonderful treasury of little-known stories and sayings of St. Therese, almost equivalent to a second Story of a Soul. Celine was St. Therese's closest friend and her disciple in Carmel, having been placed under St. Therese's direction in the novitiate. Here Celine recounts a wealth of precious memories of her sister?teachings, anecdotes, hidden virtues, conversations, and even amusing remarks?by which St. Therese translated her beautiful doctrine of Spiritual Childhood into the homely routines of daily life. Plus, Celine gives us privileged details of St. Therese's last months and beautiful death. Truly it seems an act of Divine Providence that this book was written, for Celine, blessed with a keen memory and loving heart, gathered up what she saw and heard, carefully preserving it in this now-famous little work. My Sister Saint Therese is a wonderful book of spiritual encouragement which should go far toward fulfilling St. Therese's great desire to teach others to love God as she loved Him. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10966.jpg 0.5 Mysteries, Marvels, Miracles Joan Carroll Cruz 24.00 10936 Saints 581 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.6 x 1.6 inches 895555417 One of the most amazing Catholic books of the century, for here in one volume are hundreds of true stories of miraculous phenomena in the lives of the Saints. Although easy to read, the book is referenced and indexed, making it a real treasury of miracles. The wonders described include bilocation, levitation, transverberation and other miracles of the heart, miraculous transport, prophecy, invisibility, the stigmata, voices of the dead, and many others. No one can read Mysteries, Marvels, Miracles without seeing that God has indeed favored the Saints with amazing gifts and marvelous powers over nature--testifying to his own almighty power and to the truth of the Catholic Church. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10936.jpg 1.8 Mystical Evolution Fr. John Arintero 21.00 10496 Spiritual Life 876 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.5 x 5.5 x 2.3 inches 895550717 There is no other book quite like The Mystical Evolution. Not only does it explain in profound and intimate detail the nature of the supernatural life in all its glorious ramifications for Christians in general, but it also recites a lived and familiar lexicon of the sometimes torturous steps of the spiritual life, as the individual sees it, while progressing through the famous three ways. The Mystical Evolution is unique because it is thorough and because it is written by one who both knows intellectually whereof he speaks, but at the same time has experienced the subject of his writing over a long period. (In fact, Father Arintero's sanctity has led to promotion of his cause.) Unlike most writers of spirituality, the author quotes copiously from the Bible, the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, making this virtually a mystical encyclopedia. The magnitude of this book is exhaustive, its discussion minutely informative, and its style common, so that anyone can understand. The spiritually oriented reader will dwell long and rich reward in the pages and amidst the thought of Father John Arintero. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10496.jpg 2.7 Our Pioneers and Patriots Fr.

During the fifty-eight years he was a priest, his monastery as San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy, became a mecca for pilgrims from all over the world.

On September 20, 1918 he received the sacred wounds of Christ, which he bore the rest of his life. Renowned for the Stigmata, which modern medical science could not explain, Padre Pio also possessed other unusual qualities, such as bilocation, celestial perfume, the reading of hearts, miraculous cures, remarkable conversions, and prophetic insight. Although he did not leave his monastery and was under obedience not to write or preach, this humble Capuchin monk became world famous for his piety, his counsel, and his miracles, and has been universally regarded a saint in his own time. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10554.jpg 0.85 Parents, Children & the Facts of Life Fr.

Frederick William Faber 18.00 10597 Christ 278 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 1.2 inches 895550784 Why do we honor the Precious Blood of Jesus? Because it is, as Father Faber indicates by the subtitle of this book, The Price of Our Salvation. Our Lord died on the cross from loss of blood. Hence His Precious Blood is in truth the instrument of our salvation. With this thought being central to this book, Father Faber explores, in his inimitable manner, all the implications of the Precious Blood of Jesus in our lives; its mystery and necessity, its history and prodigality, the devotion we should have toward it, and the sway of its empire. For it is from the Precious Blood of Jesus alone that our salvation comes. The Precious Blood by Father Faber is therefore actually a study in our own salvation, but, as with all of his books, it is more; it is also a resume of our faith and of our religion from the standpoint of this dominant insight. After this book the reader will conclude with Father Faber that it is out of the Precious Blood that men draw martyrdoms, vocations, celibacies, austerities, heroic charities, and all the magnificent graces of high sanctity. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10597.jpg 0.875 Preparation for Death St. Alfonsus Liguori 17.00 10600 Spiritual Life 159 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches 895551748 There is nothing more precious than time; but there is nothing less esteemed and more despised by men of the world.

To help us remember and appreciate what God has done for us, and what He demands that we be and do, I know of no finer book than The Priesthood, written by the late Auxiliary Bishop of Cologne, his Excellency the Most Reverend Wilhelm Stockums. Its nine chapters on the nature and essence of the priesthood are the most inspiring, eloquent, and convincing pages I have ever read on this most exalted of all vocations. The book is a masterpiece, and if I were a bishop, I would see to it that a copy were in the hands of each of my priests. And if I were a seminary rector, I would do all I could to place a copy in the hands of every member of my faculty and of each of my students. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10603.jpg 0.6875 The Prophecies of St. Malachy Peter Bander 9.00 10612 Saints 96 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8 x 5.3 x 0.7 inches 895550385 The over-riding value of the present little volume is twofold: These prophecies are extremely accurate, and there are only four more, after Pope Paul VI, yet to be fulfilled (according to the prophecies) before the End of Time. Mr. Bander has compiled here an inestimably valuable tract in the field of prophecy because those of St. Malachy fit beautifully into a pattern woven from the various saintly prognostications, the sibylline oracles, quasi-secular and folk predictions, and Biblical prophecy. This pattern becomes highly discernable upon reading other of the current works on Catholic prophecy. The present volume, in adding weight and credence to the prophecies of St. Malachy, at the same time further develops and substantiates the picture we gain from these other sources about the times we live in and the events, it would seem, we are about to witness. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10612.jpg 0.3125 Prophecy for Today Edward Connor 9.00 10613 Apparitions & Prophecy 135 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6.9 x 4.3 x 0.4 inches 895552124 Prophecy for Today is a summary of the Catholic tradition concerning the End-of-Time era. This period begins with the turmoil which leads to the emergence of the Great Monarch, a Catholic king who, out of the wars and revolutions of his time, triumphs victorious over the enemies of God to assume control of the entire world. Under his rule, mankind enjoys a great worldwide peace. And during this time there reigns on the throne of Peter a saintly pope, called the Angelic Pastor, who helps bring about the conversion of virtually the entire world. After the Great Monarch and the Angelic Pastor comes the time of Antichrist with its dreadful conditions. For this period, the author bases his writing mostly on Sacred Scripture. In writing Prophecy for Today, Edward Connor has achieved a remarkable feat because, within relatively few pages, he gives an accurate summation of the broad subject of Catholic prophecy relative to this epoch. Besides his main themes, he also discusses the Three Days of Darkness, the prophecy of St. Malachy, the signs before the end of the world, the earthly and heavenly scourges, and our spiritual aids in time of distress. In all, Prophecy for Today is an enthralling study, excellent as an introduction to and an overview of Catholic prophecy, as well as a review for those who have read the other books on the subject. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10613.jpg 0.4375 Purgatory Explained Fr. F.X. Shouppe 16.00 10617 The Afterlife 427 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6.8 x 4.1 x 1.1 inches 895553015 This is a reprint in pocket book size of the popular bestseller which is no longer available. Read what the Saints say about Purgatory. Read how its pains are excruciating - greater than any suffering known on earth, how they are adapted to the past sins of each individual soul, how they can vary in duration from less than one minute to a period of several centuries, and how they manifest the infinite mercy of God no less than His justice. These amazing revelations all emphasize the wonderful relief which the souls in Purgatory receive from the prayers, penance, almsgiving, and especially from the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass offered for them by the faithful. Great meditations! http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10617.jpg 0.8125 Revelations of Saint Bridget St. Bridget 5.00 10639 Saints 81 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6 x 4 x 0.3 inches 895552337 This little book of excerpts from the Revelations of St. Bridget of Sweden is one of the spiritual classics of the Church. Herein are related most intimate details in the life of Our Lord and His Blessed Mother, including the early life of Our Lady, the birth and hidden life of Jesus at Nazareth, the most sorrowful Passion of Our Lord, and Our Lady's assumption into Heaven. Particularly poignant are the descriptions of the bitter Passion of Our Lord and the of Blessed Mother's unspeakable grief as she accompanied Him on His journey to Calvary and witnessed his cruel tortures. These moving accounts will give the reader an intense realization of the sword of sorrow, prophesied by Simeon, which pierced Our Lady's heart, and of her intimate cooperation with Our Lord in the work of our redemption. The Blessed Mother says that she and Our Lord had, as it were, one heart. The Revelations of St. Bridget offers much food for the mind and heart. Anyone who reads and meditates on the treasures contained in this little book will gain a deeper love for Jesus and Mary and a renewed desire to avoid sin, the cause of their great and terrible sufferings for our salvation. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10639.jpg 0.1375 Right and Reason Milton A. Gonsalves 28.00 11154 Theology/Philosophy 627 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.5 x 1.4 inches 895556685 This book is probably the greatest and most successful Ethics book written to date. Widely used in Catholic colleges, it was undoubtedly the clearest and easiest-to-read Ethics text ever published. The author says that no book can take the place of a professor in the classroom, but this one virtually does - and Fr. Fagothey says he wrote it that way. Though this Second edition was issued in 1959, it remains remarkably contemporary and is a book which can be read basically by any adult - either in toto or as a handy reference to look up topics in question. Phrased in non - technical language, RIGHT AND REASON is a thoroughly competent book in the philosophy of Ethics, which gives the science of morality from the Aristotelian - Thomistic, common - sense school of thought - which is none other than the Perennial Philosophy of the Ages, the philosophy outside of  which one's positions quickly become absurd and all reasoning ends up in dead - ends. In 35 chapters he covers the whole field of Ethics, posing and answering the perennial questions; for example: What makes the right right and the wrong wrong? What is moral obligation and where does it come from? Why is lying never right? Why is divorce always wrong? Why is abortion always wrong? What are the various systems of moral  and what is the origin of the State? Who has the right to educate? Is capital punishment ethical? Is ther a right to work? What is a just wage?  What is a just war? What is the principle of double effect? Are suicide and euthanasia against Natural Law? Is there a Natural Law? Etc.,etc. This is a clear and masterful work, which for today's confused world is a beacon of common sense written with an authoritative competence no one can effectively argue against. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11154.jpg 2.2 Saints Who Raised the Dead Fr. Albert J. Hebert 20.00 10623 Saints 335 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.5 x 1.2 inches 895552515 Jesus told His Apostles to raise the dead (Matt. 10:8). This magnificent book covers Saints who raised from the dead persons who drowned, persons with mutilated bodies, persons who had been hanged, whose bodies had already decayed, been reduced to skeletons, or been buried for several years. They include children, unbaptized infants, unborn babies still in their mother's womb who needed to be baptized, persons executed for crimes, persons raised to testify in criminal cases or to testify to some religious truth, and persons who would have been condemned to Hell had they not been called back to earth for another chance. Also included are descriptions of Heaven, Hell and Purgatory given by temporarily dead persons who had been privileged to see those regions.

It reviles her doctrines, mocks her moral teachings and invents lies about her history. In every age, but especially in our modern day, historians and political powers have distorted the facts about her past (or just made up novel falsehoods from scratch) to make the Church, and the civilization it fostered, seem corrupt, backward, or simply evil.In Seven Lies about Catholic History, Diane Moczar (Islam at the Gates) tackles the most infamous and prevalent historical myths about the Church popular legends that you encounter everywhere from textbooks to T.V. and reveals the real truth about them. She explains how they got started and why they re still around, and best of all, she gives you the facts and the arguments you need to set the record straight about: The Inquisition: how it was not a bloodthirsty institution but a merciful (and necessary) one Galileo s trial : why moderns invented a myth around it to make science appear incompatible with the Catholic faith (it s not) The Reformation: why the 16th-century Church was not totally corrupt (as even some Catholics wrongly believe), and how the reformers made things worse for everybody ...and other lies that the world uses to attack and discredit the Faith. Written in a brisk style that s fun and easy to read, Seven Lies about Catholic History provides the lessons that every Catholic needs in order to defend and explain not just apologize for the Church s rich and complex history. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11441.jpg 0.55 Sex Education: The Final Plague Randy Engel 15.00 10690 Contemporary Issues 228 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8 x 5.3 x 0.7 inches 895554712 In total contradiction to the traditional Catholic teaching that instructing children in sexual matters is the right and duty of the parents, we now see a flood of classroom Sex Education programs and classroom Chastity Education programs. According to author Randy Engel, this education is designed to destroy natural modesty in children, awaken the passions, and pressure them to accept all sexual sins and perversions, like homosexuality, as normal. Classroom sex education is a grave moral evil, a serious occasion of sin, is all-pervasive, is taking place in most Catholic (as well as public) grade and high schools, and is being allowed-and promoted-by those in position of authority in the Catholic Church, including bishops, priests and nuns. Mrs. Engel's book, Sex Education-The Final Plague, explains where this moral plague came from, who is promoting it in Catholic schools today, and the Vatican's response to it. She calls for the Church to put a total ban on all school sex education programs. All Catholic parents should read this book in order to be armed against one of the gravest moral dangers facing our children today. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10690.jpg 0.25 St. Alphonsus Liguori Frs. Miller & Aubin 18.00 10715 Saints 388 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.5 x 1 inches 895553295 Gifted by God with a brilliant mind, St. Alphonsus resolved early in life never to waste a moment. By age 16 he was awarded a doctorate in civil and Canon Law with the highest honors, but by age 26 he had renounced life as a lawyer and became a priest, dedicating his ministry particularly to preaching, and especially to preaching missions. Under the inspiration of a series of visions seen by several holy nuns, he was led to found, first the Redemptoristine nuns for women, and shortly thereafter the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer for men, to which his name will be forever linked. As a Redemptorist, he personally conducted scores of missions and reconciled tens of thousands to Christ and His Church. Miracles abounded in his life?at least two of which were witnessed by the entire congregation in church?and include prophecy, bilocation, ecstasy, apparitions, cures, and various other miracles. On one occasion, when Mt. Vesuvius was threatening to erupt and was actually shooting flames, it became quiescent as soon as St. Alphonsus blessed it. St. Alphonsus Liguori is not just another saint or writer among many others, for it was largely through the influence of his books, for example, that the rigors of the Jansenist heresy were counteracted and the consoling mercy and love of God were taught in their place. And many Popes and urged, recommended, and even commanded that his writings be published and read widely by Catholics everywhere. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10715.jpg 1.2 St. Anthony, Wonder-Worker Charles Warren Stoddard 8.00 10718 Saints 108 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 7 x 4.3 x 0.4 inches 895550393 St. Anthony of Padua is considered to be the most popular Saint in the Catholic Church. He was of French descent, from Portugal, but worked in Italy as a Franciscan priest. Renowned for his incredible miracles?including preaching to the fish when people would not listen to him?he is most famous as The Patron Saint of Lost Objects, but he bears many other great titles, e.g., Doctor of the Church, Hammer of Heretics, Storehouse of Sacred Scripture, Father of Mystic Theology, Ark of Both Testaments, Champion of the Sacred Heart, Apostle of Mary's Assumption, Protector of Seafarers, and Patron of a Bountiful Harvest. St. Bonaventure said of him that He possessed the science of the Angels, the faith of the Patriarchs, the foreknowledge of the Prophets, the zeal of the Apostles, the purity of virgins, the austerities of confessors, and the heroism of martyrs. In all, one will search hard in the annals of the Saints to find a more fascinating and inspiring life than that of St. Anthony of Padua. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10718.jpg 0.25 St. Bernadette Soubirous Abbe Francois Trochu 22.00 10720 Saints 400 pages Book Paperback TAN Books .3 x 5.5 x 1.2 inches 895552531 St. Bernadette Soubirous is a two-fold story: that of the apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary at Lourdes, France in 1858, as well as of the 14-year-old peasant girl—raised in dire poverty and unable to read—to whom Our Lady appeared. But more, it is also the story of St. Bernadette's hidden life as a seemingly ordinary nun in her convent at Nevers, where she reached such holiness that after her death God saw fit to preserve her body incorrupt—as it remains to this day! Beautifully set forth in this book are St. Bernadette's childhood and life at home, her character—honest, intelligent, and straightforward—her description of Our Lady, the events surrounding the 18 apparitions, the opposition of the civil authorities, and the shrine and miraculous spring at Lourdes. Also described are Bernadette's life in the convent, where she suffered a martyrdom in body and in soul. His work is a masterpiece in saintly biography, the equal of which is rarely encountered. Without a doubt, this is the finest book ever written about Lourdes and its sainted and beloved visionary, St. Bernadette Soubirous. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10720.jpg 1.3 St. Catherine Laboure Fr. Joseph Dirvin 17.00 10722 Saints 254 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.5 x 0.9 inches 895552426 This is the story of the famous saint through whom we received the Miraculous Medal. No sacramental since the Rosary has had such an impact on the Church. The Medal of the Immaculate Conception, commonly called the Miraculous Medal, was manifested to a spiritual daughter of St. Vincent de Paul, Sister (now Saint) Catherine Laboure. This took place in the chapel of the Motherhouse of the Sisters of Charity, 140 rue du Bac, Paris, France. Sister Catherine during her novitiate days, received extraordinary favors from God, such as visions of the heart of St. Vincent and manifestations of Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. In 1830 she was blessed with the apparitions of Mary Immaculate to which we owe the Miraculous Medal. The front of the Medal represents Mary standing on the earth, her foot crushing the head of a serpent and her hands outstretched to all who ask her assistance. The prayer encircling her contains one of her most precious titles: ?O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.' The rays of light from her hands symbolize the graces which she is only too eager to bestow upon those who wear her Medal and pray to her. On the reverse of the Medal: a large M surmounted by a bar and a cross; beneath the M were the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the one crowned with thorns, the other pierced with a sword. The Medal was made according to Our Lady's design. It was freely circulated and in a short time was worn by millions. In its wake followed wonder innumerable. Health was restored; sickness banished; bad habits broken; special graces given; dangers averted; blessings bestowed?until the little Medal of the Immaculate Conception became known by the name it bears today, the Miraculous Medal. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10722.jpg 0.8125 St. Gertrude the Great 2.50 10736 Saints 63 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6 x 3.8 x 0.1 inches none A Brief life of this 12th-c.

Her love of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass was her “undoing” since, in order to be certain of access to the Mass, she hid priests in her own home, supplied vestments and vessels and invited other loyal Catholics to attend. The persecution she endured and the penalties she and others suffered in order to practice the true faith are almost beyond belief. Fear of death by burning, disapproval of a materialistic and faithless husband and disloyalty of friends and relatives did not deter her. She went barefoot in the dead of night to the scaffold where other English martyrs had died, praying for the grace of martyrdom. Death came to her by bring crushed with a heavy door loaded with boulders, but she wore the shroud she had made with her own hands as lovingly as if it was her bridal garment. The reader will not soon forget this remarkable lady whose prayers will now help those living today who endure the loss of the Mass, the Sacraments and the magisterial teachings of the One, True Church which St. Margaret loved with all her heart. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11236.jpg 0.1875 St. Philomena: Powerful with God Sr. Marie Helene Mohr 14.00 10770 Saints 136 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches 895553325 This is the inspiring story of a spectacular 13 year old Virgin and Martyr Saint.

During her lifetime (1515-1582), St. Teresa captivated just about everyone she met by her wit, sanity, courage, intelligence, simplicity, humility, charm and power; today she continues to delight people by her wonderful combination of holy madness and huge common sense. William Thomas Walsh recounts Teresa's years of resisting complete self-surrender to God before finally entering with undivided will on the way of perfection; of her terrible anguish over the Lutheran heretics falling into Hell and of the grievous penances and sacrifices she undertook for their conversion, and of her many adventures in opening up houses of cloistered contemplative nuns.

At his canonization, the judges became weary and stopped the ecitation of validated miracles after they exceeded 800! Like the people of Nineveh at the warning of the Prophet Jonah, the people did change, and the world was spared, and it has subsisted to the present hour - in large part because of this one man! St. Vincent paid the price for the mitigation of a chastisement in his long fasts, prayers, hair shirt, discipline, little sleep and long wearying journeys on foot with as many as 10,000 people traveling with him, including at least 50 priests. Preaching in the open, thousands heard his voice clearly. Whole cities were converted in a matter of days from the depths of the worldliness and mortal sin to strict Catholicism. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11138.jpg 0.3125 Survivals & New Arrivals Hilaire Belloc 14.00 10797 History 167 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches Probably his most important book; contains the culmination of all his historical analyses.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955), masquerading as scientific, continue to fuel the New Religion which is rapidly eroding away and replacing the true Christian faith all over the world. Teilhard claimed that Catholic doctrine has been rendered untenable by the findings of modern science-particulary with regard to evolution-and that it must therefore either change or become obsolete. Dr. Smith demonstrates this to be a fraudulent charge by showing firstly, that Darwinian evolution itself is but a conjecture and indeed a now-crumbling one, and secondly that there is no scientific basis whatsoever for Teilhard's celebrated Point Omega, his so called God of Evolution, which proves to be a gratuitous, self-contradictory, and thus completely untenable notion. Dr. Smith concludes that science neither demands nor authorizes the sweeping changes in Catholic doctrine that Teilhard calls for in its name. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10800.jpg 0.75 Textual Concordance of Holy Scripture Fr.

For, as the subtitle indicates, it is A Fervent Exhortation to All to Preserve and to Grow in Sanctifying Grace. Catholic catechisms all teach that with Baptism we become children of God and heirs of Heaven; that we receive thereby Sanctifying Grace and thus have a share in the life of God Himself. However, after learning this, most Catholics think little more about the nature of Sanctifying Grace, what it means and what it does for  us. That is why Fr. Scheeben, a renowned German theologian of the 19th century, wrote this famous book.  The Glories of Divine Grace is an impassioned appeal to us all to understand the nature of Sanctifying Grace, to preserve this incredible gift from God, and to grow in it each day for the rest of our lives. Written in a popular, direct style, this book explains how grace works, what are its effects, how to grow in grace, and the union with God that it allows us to achieve in this life, and with Him in eternity forever. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11116.jpg 1.1 The Great Heresies Hilaire Belloc 14.00 10270 Contemporary Issues 161 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 0.5 inches 895554755 In his characteristically masculine style, this beloved author analyzes the concept of heresy and examines the 5 greatest attacks upon the Church - Arianism, Islam, Albigensianism, Protestantism and Modernism.

The greatest and happiest in Heaven will be those who led the holiest lives on earth. In Heaven, no one can look upon the glorious sight of God without great joy and without becoming God-like and beautiful himself. Thus, a soul in Heaven is filled to overflowing with all knowledge; it becomes beautiful with the beauty of God, rich with His wealth, holy with His holiness, and happy with His unutterable happiness. The more completely we have mortified our inordinate passions and made our life conformable to that of Jesus Christ, the more also of personal beauty and splendor - of body as well as of soul - shall we possess in Heaven, and consequently the more of Heaven's happiness shall we enjoy. Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love Him. Thus does St. Paul speak of the splendor of Heaven (1 Cor. 2:9). Further, he tells us that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us. (Rom. 8:18). And St. Teresa of Avila states that she would rather suffer all the afflictions of this world, even to the end of time, if she could thereby merit a little more glory in Heaven - that she might thereby understand a little more of the greatness of God and therefore love Him and praise Him the more. (pg. 257). The Happiness of Heaven gives us a glimpse into the secret life of Heaven and helps us to understand the greatest ambition anyone can have in this world: To rejoice eternally in the uninterrupted vision of God. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10281.jpg 0.4375 The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass Fr. Michael Mueller 25.00 10300 Mass 589 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 1.6 inches 895554372 Few Catholics have anywhere near an adequate appreciation of the glory and splendors of the Mass, and therefore this book will come as a marvelous and surprising revelation to most. Fr. Muller brings together a wealth of Catholic traditions, Biblical facts, enthralling true stories and lessons from the lives of the Saints to show that in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass we possess something of infinite value and the only gift we can offer to God which is not miserably unworthy of Him, and a gift through which we can obtain from Him every possible favor. In this masterpiece, written over 75 years ago, Fr. Muller considers the Mass as the central element of the Catholic Faith and proceeds to examine it from every conceivable aspect. The result is that he presents not only the nature, importance and value of the Mass - in a manner that is most understandable and inspiring to the reader - but he also, in the process, touches upon virtually every facet of our Faith, showing how it is tied up with this supreme sacrifice. All, priests and layman, can gain new insights from this great work. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10300.jpg 1.8 The Incorruptibles Joan Carroll Cruz 16.50 10324 Saints 315 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8 x 5.5 x 1 inches 895550660 An account of the incorrupt bodies of 102 saints and beati of the Catholic Church where alone this miraculous suspension of the natural takes place. Proves that this is not mummification or due to embalming methods. Some bodies incorrupt after 1500 years. Buried under every conceivable circumstance, yet flexible. Some buried in lime, water, in the open, mutilated, etc. but still no corruption. Some bleed when cut, even after hundreds of years; others give off a heavenly fragrance. Miracles do exist even as Our Lord told us would happen. Here is His pledge that He would abide in His Church and in His Saints until the end of time, showing forth and pointing the way to the wise men of every age who still seek Him. This book effectively offsets the rampant naturalism of the day which seeks to destroy belief in the supernatural. The first and only book of its kind in any language. The most exciting book published in 1978. Researched for five years. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10324.jpg 0.875 The Incredible Creed of Jehovah's Witnesses Fr.

William Bonniwell 10.00 10379 Saints 114 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.4 inches 895550482 Blessed Margaret (1287-1320) was born a hunchback, midget, blind, lame and ugly. When she was six years old, her proud and noble parents walled her up beside a chapel. She could not get out, but could attend Mass and receive the Sacraments. After 14 years of imprisonment, her parents took her to a shrine to pray for a cure. When no cure took place they abandoned her. She eventually became a lay Dominican and spent the rest of her life in prayer and works of mercy. Her charity towards others was unbounded. When she died at age 33, the townspeople thronged to her funeral and demanded that the saint be buried in a tomb inside the church. The priest protested, but when a crippled girl was miraculously cured at the funeral, the people had their way. Blessed Margaret is the patron of the Right-To-Life groups. Her story is one of the most moving you will ever read. Includes a novena to Bl. Margaret and photos of her still incorrupt body. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10379.jpg 0.375 The Life of Mary as Seen by Mystics Raphael Brown 17.00 10383 Mary 264 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.7 inches 895554364 Since the beginning of Christianity, Our Blessed Lord and His Mother have favored a select few people with special revelations containing information on their lives that is not to be found anywhere else. This inspiring work blends all the magnificent visions granted to four of the most privileged souls in the history of the Church. Raphael Brown has compiled an unforgetable masterpiece on the life of Our Lady by combining the writings from Ven. Anne Catherine Emmerich, Ven. Mary of Agreda, St. Bridget of Sweden and St. Elizabeth of Schoenau. The wonderful mental pictures obtained from this enthralling narration will so impress you that they will stay with you the rest of your life. These images can't help but enhance our understanding of the New Testament and our love for Jesus, Mary and Joseph which is why the Church allows and encourages the circulation of these writings. Perhaps just as important as the telling of Mary's life according to these famous mystics is the most valuable explanation included on how the Church deals with the contradictions on historical details that sometimes occur in writings of people who receive private revelations. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10383.jpg 0.875 The Life of St. Gemma Galgani Ven. Fr. Germanus 18.50 11148 Saints 349 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 1 inches 895556693 Written by her spiritual director shortly after her death, The Life of St. Gemma Galgani is the primary source of information about his holy girl- of whom a great deal is known, because of her own writing and because her director wrote this present biography from first hand knowledge about her. A mystic, stigmatist, visionary, ecstatic, victim soul, discerner of spirits, seer of hidden souls, devotee of the Poor Souls in Purgatory, St. Gemma Galgani seemed to possess every hallmark of sanctity - and that to a marked degree. Containing much more than all the above, this book will give everyone confidence that he or she too can attain to high sanctity, even if living as a lay person in the world. Indeed, the reader will be profoundly impressed by this Life, because, in sum, it is hard to imagine a more perfect life or one more simply and completely consecrated to Christ than that of The Virgin of Lucca, The Gem of Christ, St. Gemma Galgani. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11148.jpg 1.2 The Popes against Modern Errors Papal Documents 19.00 11026 Catholic Teaching 365 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.5 x 0.8 inches 089555643X In 1789, the French Revolution took place and launched a host of religious, political and social errors which the Popes for over 160 years afterwards wrote and legislated against. Yet most of these errors have spread and today have filtered down to the common man...with the result that most people now take for granted many fundamental assumptions that are positively false! But almost from the beginning of these errors, the Popes spoke out as with one voice, inveighing against them. Today, as we see these errors bearing evil fruit, many thoughtful Catholics are returning to those Papal documents which condemned these modern errors, to examine what the Popes have said all along about them. Here, in one handy volume, are the best and most famous of those Papal denunciations: On Liberalism (Mirari Vos). Gregory XVI. 1832. On Current Errors. (Quanta Cura). Pius IX. 1864. The Syllabus of Errors. Pius IX. 1864. On Government Authority (Diuturnum Illud). Leo XIII. 1881. On Freemasonry and Naturalism (Humanum Genus). Leo XIII. 1884. On the Nature of True Liberty (Libertas Praestissimum). Leo XIII. 1888. On the Condition of the Working Classes (Rerum Novarum). Leo XIII. 1891. On Christian Democracy (Graves de Communi Re). Leo XIII. 1901. Syllabus Condemning the Errors of the Modernists (Lamentabili Sane). St. Pius X. 1907. On Modernism (Pascendi Dominici Gregis). St. Pius X. 1907.

Wiltgen 18.00 10640 Contemporary Issues 304 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 0.9 inches 895551861 This is an unparalleled eyewitness account of just what transpired at the Second Vatican Council. The author's integrity and objectivity won him exclusive interviews with a great number of the Cardinal and Bishops, whatever their allegiance within the Council. The title neatly sums up the fact that Vatican II, and the documents of Vatican II, were shaped largely by the liberal ideas of the Fathers from the Rhine lands. In The Rhine Flows into the Tiber, the strategies of the liberals in promoting their ideas come through on every page. Father Wiltgen's journalistic masterpiece shows clearly the two main theological forces that were at work in the church before the Council, during the Council, and after the Council, and which remain very much at work in the Church today. Here are the actions and actual words of the famous personalities of the Council, including Cardinals Ottaviani, Frings, and Suenens; Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre; Fathers Karl Rahner, Joseph Ratzinger, and Hans Kung-and of course, Pope John XXIII and Pope Paul VI. This book is essential for anyone who would understand the new orientations which came to the fore with Vatican Council II-including the famous Spirit of Vatican II-orientations which have led to momentous destruction and unprecedented changes in the entire Roman Catholic Church. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10640.jpg 0.875 The Rise and Growth of the Anglican Schism Nicholas Sander 24.00 10642 Miscellaneous 380 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.5 x 1.4 inches 895553473 Herein is told in incredible detail the story of Henry VIII, the English king who separated his country from Rome and assumed the headship of the Church in England as a result of his mad effort to have a male heir. The author describes his wicked life and despotic rule: how he married Anne Boleyn, who was his own illegitimate daughter (from whom was born Elizabeth), and who in her effort to provide Henry with a son had relations with 5 other men (including her brother); how this led to her execution and Henry's marrying Jane Seymour, who bore him Edward VI, the child king who after Henry's relatively early death at 57 assumed the crown under regency and died at only age 16?ironically, on the anniversary of Henry's beheading St. Thomas More. In all, The Rise and Growth of the Anglican Schism provides an intimate look into the lives and times of the unsavory characters who produced the disastrous Protestant Reformation in England. It is a unique book that cannot be ignored by anyone interested in the complete and true story of that sad, sad event. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10642.jpg 1.4 The Rosary and the Crisis of Faith Msgr.

Paul O'Sullivan 9.00 10670 Sacraments 96 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6.9 x 4.2 x 0.3 inches 895554593 This special book reveals one of the truly great secrets of the Catholic Faith. It describes with great warmth and love the Sacrament of Confession. Includes a host of true stories about Confession, plus quotes on Confession from Holy Scripture and from the Saints of the early Church. Many stories involve non-Catholics, showing how Confession has won the admiration even of Protestants. The author combines all these elements to prove that Confession comes from Our Lord Himself, that it gives renewed courage and youthfulness of spirit to the heart and soul, and that by means of weekly Confession any sin can be conquered. Frequent Confession is also a great means of protection against sins of impurity. It is one of the greatest gifts of God to man. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10670.jpg 0.125 The Shroud of Turin Vittorio Guerrera 17.00 11149 Christ 172 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.5 x 0.6 inches 895556804 The Shroud of Turin has been the object of awe and controversy for many centuries. Popes, princes and peasants have traveled far and wide to pray before this mysterious image of a crucified man, believed by many to be Jesus of Nazareth. Although the Roman Catholic Church (the owner of the Shroud) has never officially declared the cloth to be the authentic burial linen of Jesus Christ, she has permitted its veneration by the Faithful. In 1988, when scientists using radiocarbon testing announced that the shroud had a medieval origin, the media quickly embraced this dating as conclusive. Many scientists, however, maintained that years of scientific studies pointed to its authenticity - conducted by experts in medicine, optical physics, radiography, chemistry, photography and other disciplines - could not be so easily dismissed. Moreover, they pointed out the scientific irregularities of the 1988 test and the highly fallible nature of radiocarbon dating itself. Today, interest in the Shroud is stronger than ever. Here Fr. Guerrera puts before the reader both the historical background and most current scientific findings on the Shroud showing the great preponderance of evidence that the Shroud of Turin is indeed the burial cloth of Jesus Christ. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/11149.jpg 0.8125 The Sinner's Return to God Fr. Michael Mueller 16.00 10694 Spiritual Life 224 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.1 x 5.4 x 0.7 inches 895552051 The Sinner's Return to God is a soul stirring book about the importance of the Sacrament of Confession. The devil, forced by a holy theologian to declare what it is that most injures him and his fellows, replied, There is nothing in the Church which does us so much harm, which so unnerves our power, as frequent confession. Father Mueller proceeds to show how the habitual sinner becomes hardened against the grace of God, how easy it is to slip into habits of sin and how hard to break them, how easily habitual sinners can be tempted to despair, and how terrible are the deaths of sinners who die unrepentant. Further, he shows the danger of bad books, of drunkenness and impurity, of delaying the time of one's conversion for God and of over-reliance on His mercy. The author shows clearly what is the alternative to salvation?everlasting Hell. He also shows the marvelously purifying effects of perfect contrition, the infinite mercy of God, the way to overcome the difficulties of confession, the priest's joy in granting absolution, the beautiful, pure soul of the absolved sinner and his heartfelt consolation after Confession. Bodily medicine, Father Mueller writes, if very sparingly used, gives relief, it is true; while if frequently applied, it restores or preserves health. Thus too, Confession, if made even but seldom, produces saving effects in the soul; while, if made frequently, it begets in it the fullness of perfection The author ends by describing the wonderful role played by the Blessed Virgin Mary in helping the sinner return to God's grace. Extremely sobering, yet profoundly consoling, The Sinner's Return to God demonstrates fully the dire need we all have of frequenting the Sacrament of Confession. Here is a book that should be read by every Catholic in our age, when the practice of Confession has been all but abandoned. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10694.jpg 0.6875 The Spiritual Combat Dom Lorenzo Scupoli 15.00 10705 Spiritual Life 240 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.6 inches 895551527 The Spiritual Combat is a famous classic on the strategy for achieving spiritual perfection and salvation. First published in 1589, it was the favorite book of the great St. Francis de Sales (1567-1622), Doctor of the Church and master of the spiritual life; he carried a copy in his pocket for 18 years, read from it every day and recommended it to everyone under his direction. Vigorous, realistic, and full of keen insight into human nature, The Spiritual Combat consists of 66 short chapters based on the maxim that in the spiritual life one must either Fight or die. It shows the Christian how to combat his passions and vices with an intelligent method, in order to arrive at victory, rather than running around blindly beating the air. Fr. Scupoli explains how to concentrate one's energies in order to make constant progress in acquiring virtue, with particularly specific advice for overcoming the vices of impurity and sloth. Spiritual Combat is a book of time-tested strategy for achieving spiritual victory; it is a great guide on which to form one's soul and launch it firmly on the way to solid virtue. It is one of the all-time greatest and best-known classics on the spiritual life and is a book that will inspire and instruct today just as it has for over 400 years. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10705.jpg 0.4375 The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius St. Ignatius of Loyola 17.00 10711 Saints 200 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.3 x 5.4 x 0.6 inches 385024363 The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, one of the great masterpieces of the Christian canon, today continues to offer some of the most accessible and insightful guidance for going on retreat?whether as part of a group or by oneself. Based on the rich fruit of St. Ignatius' own meditations and practice, this guide for spiritual perfection has been treasured and faithfully used for centuries by members of the saint's Jesuit order and by millions more. Divided into four weeks of refections and four key meditations?on the Kingdom of God, the Two Standards (of Christ and Satan), the Three Classes of Men, and the Three Modes of Humility?the whole retreat has at its center the emulation of Christ. Retreat masters, retreatants, and readers will benefit particularly from Anthony Mattola's new translation, which renders the timeless masterpiece into language both accessible and faithful to St. Ignatius' original expression and spirit. The Exercises have been universally recognized as a brilliant and inspired guide to the development of a deeper Christian spirituality ever since St. Ignatius completed them in 1533. Great saints?as well as countless religious and lay people?have been spiritually shaped through their dedicated use. This four-week system of meditation and prayer continues to be the very backbone of Ignatian retreats, where earnest seekers come to examine their lives, contemplate the future, face decisions, and revitalize their souls. Both religious and lay people make Ignatian retreats to renew their Christian dedication and enthusiasm, but even those who cannot make such retreats have profited greatly from a careful reading of the Exercises. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10711.jpg 0.5 The Story of A Family: Home of St. Therese of Lisieux Stephane-Joseph Piat 25.00 10788 Saints 459 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.5 x 5.5 x 1.3 inches 9711172151 One of the secrets of the greatness of St. Therese, called the Little Flower by Pope Pius XI, was the love and training she received at home by her family.

Whoever takes up this story is in for one of the great reading experiences of his life. For this story tears at one's heart-strings as it reveals the making of a great, great Saint in the family context of what certainly has to have been the high water mark of French Catholic life. 21 Photos. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10788.jpg 1.5 The Story of the Church Johnson, Hannan, Dominica 22.50 10789 History 521 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6.8 x 4.7 x 1.5 inches 089555156X Written so that the student will learn to love the Church and begin a lifelong interest in its history.

John A. Hardon S.J. 29.95 10829 Miscellaneous 737 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.9 x 6.1 x 1.8 inches 898705398 Supposing you were able to read the Confession of St. Patrick, The Testament of St. Francis of Assisi, the 80 Rules of St. Basil the Great and the profound reflections of Dante on the need for purification before a person beholds the Face of God? These little-known and little-read gems of wisdom are more than mere selections chosen because of their exclusive beauty for inclusion in this monumental anthology. Fr. Hardon planned the material in order to present a Catholic library in miniature, a one volume summation of some of the most splendid inspirations which have guided the Church from her beginning. He starts with the earliest known work of Christian antiquity outside the New Testament called the Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, or as the Greeks have it, The Didache. Evidence is shown that the Church was first called Catholic is a Letter of St. Ignatius of Antioch. Because of persecution of his famous statement You cannot have God for your Father if you have not the Church for you mother, may be read in the Unity of the Catholic Church. The writings of 33 saints and great Catholic thinkers collected here will provide hours of deep reflections on the scope of the problems common to all mankind, such as loving those who dislike us, the pain of birth into a New Life, the control of passions, meddling in other people's affairs to name a few. Saints writings include those of Cyril, Gregory, John Chrysostom, Agustine, Benedict, Bonaventure, Thomas Aquinas, Catherine of Siena, Thomas More, Ignatius, John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, Francis de Sales, Peter Julian Eymard, Therese of Lisieux and the more recent writers, John Henry Newman, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Francis Thompson, Hilaire Belloc, G.K. Chesterton, Christopher Dawson and Fulton J. Sheen. Each chapter is prefaced with a short summary of the life of the saint, poet, mystic or penitent. Next to reading Holy Scripture, the most inspiring material is that which has been written by the saints under the inspiration of Divine Grace, and a few minutes spent each day with this treasury will bring untold peace and understanding to the reader, to say nothing of the pure joy of it. This is the thought and wisdom which raised the pagan nations from the abyss of ignorance to the splendor of the True Faith. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10829.jpg 2.2 Therese Neumann Adalbert A. Vogl 18.00 10804 Saints 210 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 8.2 x 5.3 x 0.8 inches 895552418 These are the personal memories of a life-time family friend who was also an official witness in the process leading to the Cause for Therese Neumann's beatification. Here Mr. Vogl describes Therese's Passion ecstasies, her stigmata, miraculous receptions of Holy Communion, her abstinence from 1926 to 1962 from all food and drink except the Eucharistic Host, her living without sleep, her visions and the language phenomenon, her mystical recognition of priests and relics, her cures and prophecies, and her bilocation and other mystical gifts. Therese was at the pinnacle of world fame during the Nazi regime which she and her friends opposed vigorously, and an informative chapter is included showing the proportion of voters who brought Hitler to power had very few Catholics among them. 72 phenomenal black and white and color photographs graphically portray the wounds and bleeding and the Passion she experienced over 700 times. Although not told in this book, there is an often recounted story which tells that Therese is the mystic who prophecied that because of the mercy of God, bombs would not fall on U.S. soil as a reward for the generosity of the American people to many other countries of the world. But the chastisement that would befall America would be due to natural disasters and financial loss. Therese lived between 1898 and 1962 and offered her sufferings in reparation for the horrors of this century. Her life appears to be a pure gift of God as an inspiration to all of us. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10804.jpg 0.8125 Trustful Surrender to Divine Providence Father Jean Baptiste Saint-Jure 8.00 10836 Spiritual Life 139 pages Book Paperback TAN Books 6 x 4 x 0.4 inches 895552167 Father Jean Baptiste Saint-Jure, S.J., and Blessed Claude De La Colombiere, S.J., (spiritual director of St. Margaret Mary) have given us one of the most consoling little books anyone could have ever have in their personal spiritual library on how to conform to God's will. The writings in this book by Fr. Saint-Jure were the constant companion of the great Cure of Ars, St. John Marie Vianney. The authors tell us that there can be no doubt that whoever practices entire submission to His will lays up inestimable treasures at every moment amasses more riches in a few days than others are able to acquire in many years and with great labor.

What would I not do with a soul, however black she might be, who would give herself to Me. It is My joy to help you. I can do great things for eternity with a soul who unreservedly gives herself to Me. To the question... Why do You love me, Jesus replied, Your misery attracts Me-what would you do without Me? I have souls who love Me and belong to Me. A single one of them can purchase pardon for a great many others who are cold and ungrateful. You must never forget that I always am, and love to be, kind and merciful towards My creatures. Yes, work is a joy and a great dignity for man; but what I desire is not merely your work, but yourself. You dishonor Me when you leave Me to think only of your work. These are but a few examples of the wealth of insight into the mind and heart of Our Divine Saviour as contained in these words of love spoken by Our Lord personally to three privileged nuns who lived in the 20th Century. Under thirty-four major topics, Fr. Gottemoller, a priest of the Trappist Order, has painstakingly compiled this rich selection of gems from the revelations of Jesus to Sr. Josefa Menendez (1890-1923), Sr. Mary of the Trinity (1901-1942), and Sr. Consolata Betrone (1903-1946). There is no reader who will not garner a new and profound understanding about the seemingly mysterious ways of Our Lord toward souls by a thoughtful reading of this unique book. http://www.catholictreasures.com/pictures/10888.jpg 0.375 Ancient Christian Writer's Library Various Authors SET 60061 Spiritual Life SET Book Hardcover
