Persecuted and Forgotten 2020-2022 Executive Summary A5

Persecuted and Forgotten 2020-2022 Executive Summary A5

More than most people, Christians around the world are persecuted and harassed more than any other faith. Supporting those brothers and sisters is one of the key areas of the work of Aid to the Church in Need. As part of our mission, every two years ACN produces a comprehensive report on the current situation for Christians entitled 'Persecuted and Forgotten'. The 2020-2022 executive summary makes for sobering reading. Priests are killed, the faithful are kidnapped, Christian women are raped and forced to deny their faith, churches are desecrated, and whole communities are forced to flee. The report examines the terrible situation in 24 countries where ACN has found evidence of serious religious freedom violations. Why issue such a report? Because we must break the silence, we must inform ourselves and inform those around us, we have to do all we can to ensure that they are not forgotten.

Visits to the Blessed Sacrament and the Blessed Virgin Mary by St. Alphonsus Liguori

Visits to the Blessed Sacrament and the Blessed Virgin Mary by St. Alphonsus Liguori

After she died, St. Teresa of Avila appeared to one of her nuns and said: "There should be no difference, as far as purity and love are concerned, between the blessed in Heaven and the faithful on earth. Though we are perfectly happy and you are suffering. What the Divine Essence is to us in Heaven, the Blessed Sacrament should be to you on earth". Here, then, says St. Alphonsus, is our heaven on earth - the Most Blessed Sacrament.

Time For God

Are you too busy to pray? What if you could actually gain time and be more productive by praying? Would you pray more? We often forget the real secret to gaining time and being productive is to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness , and all these things shall be yours as well (Mt 6:33). If we make time for God through prayer, He multiplies our time and makes it fruitful and productive in all areas of our life. But have you ever felt unsure about how to pray? For that matter, what exactly is prayer and who is it for? And where, when and how should you pray?

Her work with children, adolescents and adults over many years in different fields such as tutoring, mentoring and psychological counselling made her realize the importance of a child’s intellect, memory and imagination and how it plays an integral part in shaping their subconscious memory and the rest of their life. Although she never planned on writing a children’s book, she hopes that these “puzzle piece tales” will help children in a small way grasp the immense beauty and majesty of the supernatural world that surrounds us and that dwells inside our souls.

The Secret of the Rosary by Saint Louis Marie De Montfort

The Secret of the Rosary by Saint Louis Marie De Montfort

Probably the finest book ever written about the power and spiritual efficacy of the Most Holy Rosary. Saint Louis Marie De Montfort, the author of the True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, used the rosary to combat the lukewarmness in the faith that was rampant in his own day. With his book, The Secret of the Rosary, this same saint will enflame us with the necessary zeal to be apostles of Our Lady in our own day where the rosary is more sorely needed than at any time in history! From the preface of the Secret of the Rosary: "Drawing upon his own experience as well as upon the experience of others, the author endeavours to bring home to the reader, in a simple and straightforward manner the authentic message of the Rosary; namely, that it is a veritable school of Christian life. He sees it as including essentially the meditation of the mysteries of the life, death and glory of Jesus and Mary, with a view not only to honoring but especially imitating their virtues as held up to our consideration in each mystery. For our Saint, the Rosary was not simply a method of prayer: it was his most effective tool and weapon in his apostolic work. He preached it in season and out of season; established it in every parish where he gave a mission and judged the fruits of the mission by the subsequent perseverance in its recitation. There was no limit to the power of the Rosary and to it he attributed much of his success with sinners. 'Let me but place my rosary around a sinner's neck and he will not escape me.' This book was written three centuries ago, it is true, but it has lost none of its freshness and timeliness. Indeed, today, in the light of the specific requests of Our Lady of Fatima, it will be doubly welcomed by all true clients of Our Lady. We feel confident that it will bring many souls to a better understanding of the Rosary not only as a prayer but especially as a way of spiritual life. 120 pages. Dimensions: 24.5 x 15.5 x 3.8cm.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta: A Personal Portrait

Mother Teresa of Calcutta: A Personal Portrait

This book is very highly recommended! Mother Teresa’s life sounds like a legend: the Albanian girl who entered an Irish order to go to India as a missionary and became an Angel of the Poor for countless people. Fr. Leo Maasburg was there as her close companion for many years, traveling with her throughout the world and was witness to countless miracles and incredible little-known occurrences. In this personal portrait of the beloved nun, he presents amazing stories about her that most people have never heard, wonderful and delightful stories about miracles, small and great, that he was privileged to experience at Mother Teresa’s side. They all tell of her limitless trust in God’s love, of the way the power of faith can move mountains, and of hope that can never die. These stories reveal a humorous, gifted, wise, and arresting woman who has a message of real hope for our time. It’s the life story of one of the most important women of the twentieth century as it has never been told before. Dim: 20x18cm Pages: 206

Catechism of the Catholic Church Revised Second Edition

Catechism of the Catholic Church Revised Second Edition

The Catechism of the Catholic Church is an essential reference for every Catholic and should be readily accessible in every Catholic home. Why? It serves several important functions: (a) It conveys the essential and fundamental content of Catholic faith and morals in a complete and summary way. (b) It is a positive, objective and declarative exposition of Catholic doctrine. (c) It is intended to assist those who have the duty to catechize, namely promoters and teachers of catechesis." Pope St. John Paul II said this about this catechism: "In reading the Catechism of the Catholic Church we can perceive the wonderful unity of the mystery of God." The Catechism of the Catholic Church is divided into four major parts. They are referred to as the "four pillars" on which the Catechism is built. In his Apostolic Constitution promulgating the Catechism, Pope John Paul II called them the "four movements of a great symphony." They are: 1) the Creed - what the Church believes; 2) the Sacraments - what the Church celebrates; 3) the Commandments - what the Church lives, and; 4) the Our Father - what the Church prays. The Catechism consists of 2,865 paragraphs, each of which is numbered. There is an internal cross-referencing system among the paragraphs which makes it simple to find all the passages in the Catechism which treat a particular subject. In addition, the Catechism provides several indices for ease in locating particular passages. Indices are organized according to themes, Scriptural citations, symbols of the faith, documents of ecumenical councils, documents of other councils and synods, pontifical documents, ecclesiastical documents, canon law, liturgical texts and ecclesiastical authors. The Catechism of the Catholic Church originated with a recommendation made at the Extraordinary Synod of Bishops in 1985. In 1986 Pope John Paul II appointed a Commission of Cardinals and Bishops to develop a compendium of Catholic doctrine. In 1989 the Commission sent the text to all the Bishops of the world for consultation. In 1990 the Commission examined and evaluated over 24,000 amendments suggested by the world's bishops. The final draft is considerably different from the one that was circulated in 1989. In 1991 the Commission prepared the text for the Holy Father's official approval. On June 25, 1992 Pope John Paul II officially approved the definitive version of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. On December 8, 1992 Pope John Paul II promulgated the Catechism with an apostolic constitution. Size: 18 x 12 x 3cm

The full verse is: "I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "Plans to prosper you & not to harm you, plans to give you hope & a future." Jeremiah 29:11 A heat-debossed rectangular frame secures the design, and topstitching along the rounded edges of the journal adds strength to the construction.
