They are years rich in the wise teachings of our holy Mother, under whose guidance fervor was continuous; years of fast growth in the number of vocations, and of further development evidenced by the opening of twelve more Houses. Trials are not wanting: death is still claiming victims among the young Sisters, yet these occasions bring to light such virtue as to leave no doubt about the supernatural richness of the primitive spirit. As in the preceding volumes, the narrative follows a year by year pattern interspersed with brief indications of the various events, which, as already explained, correspond to the marginal notes of the original manuscript.

  • The Pieta Prayer Book and the 15 St. Bridget Prayers
    The Pieta Prayer Book And The 15 St. Bridget Prayers C.H.G. J.M.J To the Reader This booklet on prayer is an effort to apply the scientific method to the Truths of our Roman Catholic Faith, to obtain more grace to better serve God, drawing particularly on that gigantic source of God’s Infinite Goodness and Mercy ‐ a source virtually untapped – PROPHETIC REVELATIONS. “When it’s a question of prophetic revelations the Pope is the SOLE judge!” (Pope Leo X 5th Council of Lateran 1513) Dedication The Blessed Virgin said: “You love Me and make others love Me.” This revised edition of the Pieta Prayer Booklet is dedicated to The Dear Lady of Ephesus as an act of love to honor thine Assumption. “I am all thine my Queen and Mother and all that I have is Thine”. Purpose Scripture says: “Pray without ceasing.” St. Paul of the Cross wrote: “We enter on the broad road of perdition when we neglect prayer.” Dr. Alexis Carrel wrote: “If you make a habit of prayer, your life will be profoundly altered.” As a scientist he turned to prayer as man’s highest activity; that conversation with God to be an art of all arts. May this Pieta Prayer Booklet serve as a spiritual tool for souls who wish to increase their daily prayer life. May the Dear Angels who carried the Holy House of Loreto carry this booklet to all persons who wish to pray more after reciting the daily rosary. 3 Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.

Conte Jr. All quotations from Holy Scripture are from the Revised Standard Version Bible, Catholic Edition, copyright 1965 and 1966 by the Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA. Used by permission. Written and published by: Ronald L. Conte Jr., Grafton, Massachusetts 01519 USA Chronology: Work on this booklet began in 1997 and was completed in June of 1998. The booklet was first published under the title: the Virginity of Mary and Jesus. This booklet was revised and expanded in the Jubilee year 2000 and re-titled: the Virginity of Jesus and Mary.

This version was first published in print and electronically in September 2001. 2 the Virginity of Jesus and Mary “O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.”2 The Visions of Blessed Anne Catherine Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich describes the meeting of the parents of the Virgin Mary, Saint Joachim and Saint Ann, in an underground passageway of the Temple of Jerusalem. “After passing through about a third of the passage Joachim came to a place in the midst of which stood a pillar in the form of a palm-tree with hanging leaves and fruits.

  • Compiled from Devout Resources of the Saints' Sites
    compiled from devout resources of the Saints' sites. www.saintsprayers.net "That we may pray unceasingly" 1 Thess. 5:17 Herein is contained a compilation of Catholic prayers, quotations, and readings from religious devotional books and the writings of and about the saints. The treasury of wisdom herein is the treasury of Christ Himself for the soul. For these prayers to be of lasting value you must adhere to the one true Church founded by Christ, the Catholic Church and her doctrine as given by Christ while living a life of grace and love God in all your doings, being always aware of your own humble nature. The quotations and readings will be of aid for the mortification of the senses, purgation, understanding of the interior life, repelling of the spiritual enemies of the soul, illumination, and finishing of the spiritual journey to salvation. An example of devotion. Practice the continual remembrance of the Lord. Begin your day with the sign of the cross, invitatory, and morning prayers such as thanksgiving for the night's protection, morning offerings, and the acts of virtue. Examine your conscience and what the day will hold ahead. Pray for these intentions, then pray during the hours of the day, with such as the powerful prayers of the Most Precious Blood for the Holy Souls. Remember the hour of noon, and the hour of three o'clock. Devote every act to Jesus Christ in between the hours. Fast according to your capacity and practice temperance throughout all your acts. At midnight rise and make a devotion.

JUSTIN’S BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES AND FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES The Lord does not create people just to occupy space. God has a plan, a vocation, a mission for every human being. Many of today’s problems are caused by the fact that people are more con- cerned about finding a job, a profession, or a career, rather than their own vocation and mission in life. A profession or career is something we do to live, to earn what we need in order to live. Vocation is something we do out of dedication and love. A profession can be chosen or inspired by our family or by human considerations but a vocation comes from on high and invites us to loving service of our neighbor.
