| saint leonard of port maurice: Counsels to Confessors Saint Leonard of Port Maurice, 2008 This book is exactly what the title implies, sound advice for the healing of souls in the confessional.

A must for priests but also very edifying reading for the faithful who wish to gain the most spiritual benefit from their sacramental confessions. |
| saint leonard of port maurice: Advent with the Saints Greg Friedman, 2011 Christians know that St. John the Baptist prepares the way of the Lord. Which other saints can accompany us during the four weeks of waiting for the birth of Jesus? Through insightful reflections, Franciscan Father Greg Friedman, a pastor and radio personality, connects us to the lives of saints and holy ones suggested by the Scriptural readings of Advent. Father Greg draws on his love for the saints to offer us daily inspiration during this season of preparation. For each day of Advent until Christmas Day, we find a brief reflection on an Advent lectionary reading, with a saintly connection, a suggested action for the day, and a prayer to help us slow down and savor this season of waiting and hope. This perennial Advent resource will become part of your preparation for Christmas year after year. |

| saint leonard of port maurice: Life of St Leonard of Port - Maurice Dominic Devas, Fr Dominic Devas O F M, 2013-08-14 A HOPE was once expressed to a religious, desirous of publishing some documents on monastic history, that his work “Might prove fruitful of good,” the underlying intimation being that possibly it might not. The present writer has been constantly beset, whilst writing these pages, with a similar fear. What, it may well be asked, is the use of putting before us today the example of one who, though modern in the ranks of the Saints, was most certainly what is called contemptuously, I fear a medievalist, a man who followed old-time ways and customs, and sought to perpetuate them? True, Leonard was beyond all question a great missioner, a prolific giver of Retreats, a popular preacher, and as such is not regarded without some condescending sympathy, as being, up to a certain point, intelligible to the modern spirit. But to think of him in that light only is, I venture to suggest, wrong, and the resulting picture a distorted one. Far better, so it seems to me, to relegate his memory to complete oblivion, rather than to resuscitate him only in part. We have no right to mutilate our subject, and then present a partial figure, on the plea that such is the only aspect of his life of any interest today. To put the question on no higher level, such a proceeding would be a falsification of history; to me it seems the falsification of a Saint. Consequently, in the following pages I have endeavoured to make a fair division and give equal prominence to the two sides of the Saint's life, so admirably summarized by him in his letter to Brother Stephen. |

| saint leonard of port maurice: A School of Prayer Pope Benedict XVI, 2012 His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI has declared the year between Oct. 11, 2012 and Nov. 24, 2013 to be a Year of Faith. Part of the purpose of this year is, in the words of the Pope, to rediscover the content of the faith that is professed, celebrated, lived and prayed... (Porta Fidei). Deepen your prayer life this year with this collection of meditations from the Holy Father's catechesis on prayer, offered since the spring of 2011 through his Wednesday audiences in St. Peter¿s Square. These addresses contain profound meditations on prayer as practiced by some of the great figures of history, beginning with Old Testament patriarchs and prophets, leading up to Jesus, our great model in prayer, and continuing on to the prayer of the disciples after the resurrection. The addresses collected in this volume (May 2011 to May 2012) reveal to the Christian in the modern world how he too can live by faith in the God who is always present. In the upcoming catechesis [...] let us learn to live our relationship with the Lord even more intensely, as if it were a ¿school of prayer.¿ ~ Pope Benedict XVI |
| saint leonard of port maurice: Guide for Confessors Alphonsus Liguori, 2017-09-22 This rich classic passed out of common usage years ago, but here we find it restored for the first time to the benefit of the English reader. St. Alphonsus transformed the landscape of the experience of this Reconciliation, and our confessional experience would be unthinkable without his saintly, intellectual, and pastoral prowess. While the cultural and historical context is amazingly fascinating, it necessitates peeling back those layers to see the glimmering treasure within. For that reason, this edition provides an introductory essay that steps lightly to take note of these difference for a fruitful reception of the saint's genius. May all readers benefit for the greater glory of God. |

(1676-1751) Consequently, in the following pages I have endeavoured to make a fair division and give equal prominence to the two sides of the Saint's life, so admirably summarized by him in his letter to Brother Stephen (p. The initial difficulty, however, still remains, and I must endeavour to justify myself 1n presenting what to many must always seem an impossible ideal. Now, no one Would dream for a moment of advocating anywhere to-day the construction of a religious house on the lines of Incontro - it was peculiar to country, time, and people, a monument to admire, but not to imitate. But what of the spirit animating these heroic missionaries who - for brief spaces of life - were bent on being solitaries? Is there, perchance, no connection between their wonderful success as preachers and this, to us unseemly, hankering after a mountain top. Is there not something in their outlook on the world we may do more than admire?

| saint leonard of port maurice: Sacred Treasures of the Mass St. Leonard of Port Maurice, 2014-07-25 The Mass is truly a Sacred Treasure, and, alas, our cold, dead faith allows it to remain so. If we valued it as we ought, we would hurry every morning to the church, careless of the snows of winter and the heats of summer, in order to get a share of the riches of this treasure.The Saints knew the value of one Mass: that was a dark day in their calendar on which they were deprived of the happy privilige of saying or hearing Mass. Sacred Treasures of the Mass by St. Leonard of Port Maurice will stir the soul to practice the Catholic faith with zeal and ardour. This saintly writer truly inspires the Christian soul to strive for perfection through deep and devout devotion to the Mass. |

| saint leonard of port maurice: Those Who Are Saved Alexis Landau, 2021-02-23 In the spirit of We Were the Lucky Ones and We Must Be Brave, a heartbreaking World War II novel of one mother's impossible choice, and her search for her daughter against the odds. As a Russian Jewish émigré to France, Vera's wealth cannot protect her or her four-year-old-daughter, Lucie, once the Nazis occupy the country. After receiving notice that all foreigners must report to an internment camp, Vera has just a few hours to make an impossible choice: Does she subject Lucie to the horrid conditions of the camp, or does she put her into hiding with her beloved and trusted governess, safe until Vera can retrieve her? Believing the war will end soon, Vera chooses to leave Lucie in safety. She cannot know that she and her husband will have an opportunity to escape, to flee to America. She cannot know that Lucie's governess will have fled with Lucie to family in rural France, too far to reach in time. And so begins a heartbreaking journey and separation, a war and a continent apart. Vera's marriage will falter under the surreal sun of California. Her ability to write--once her passion--will disappear. But Vera's love for Lucie, her faith that her daughter lives, will only grow. As Vera's determination to return to France and find Lucie crystalizes, she meets Sasha, a man on his own search for meaning. She is stronger with Sasha than she is alone. Together they will journey to Lucie. They will find her fate. |
| saint leonard of port maurice: The glories of Mary Alfonso Maria de' Saint Liguori, 2025-03-02 In The Glories of Mary, Alfonso Maria de' Saint Liguori presents a profound exploration of Marian devotion, intertwining theological reflection with a rich tapestry of prayer and meditation. Written in an accessible yet eloquent style, the book stands as a monumental work of Catholic spirituality, infused with a baroque sensibility that echoes the artistic trends of the 18th century.

His background in law and theology enriches this work, allowing him to elegantly blend intellectual rigor with heartfelt piety. This work is highly recommended for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of Marian devotion or to enhance their spiritual practice. Liguori's engaging prose and profound insights make this book a vital resource for both personal reflection and communal worship, serving as a guiding light for the faithful on their spiritual journey. |

Analyzing the changing functions, outlooks, and meanings of devotional objects - monumental sacrament houses, cult statues and altarpieces, and small votive offerings or relics - Ruben Suykerbuyk revises dominant narratives about Catholic culture and patronage in the Low Countries. Rather than being a paralyzing force, the Reformation incited engaged counterinitiatives, and the vitality of late medieval devotion served as the fertile ground from which the Counter-Reformation organically grew under Protestant impulses-- |
