Staritsa : The Spiritual Motherhood Of Catherine Doherty
$27.00
Both groundbreaking and readable, this book examines a neglected gift, spiritual motherhood, and traces Catherine Doherty’s development as a staritsa, or spiritual mother in the Russian-Eastern tradition. Of particular interest are chapters dealing with Catherine’s exercise of spiritual motherhood for priests and laity alike.
Previously unpublished letters of spiritual direction between Catherine and her major spiritual directors offer the reader a privileged glimpse into the soul of this Servant of God and her spiritual children, as she grows in her vocation as staritsa. A spiritual mother who lived her love of the Church with a passionate and pastoral heart, Catherine de Hueck Doherty will inspire readers who care deeply for the life of the Mystical Body of Christ-the Church.
This is a book that can easily be shared and used for priestly convocations, women’s retreats, days of recollection, and self-reflection, pondering not only Catherine’s life, but the question, “How can I, too, carry the Spirit of God in my life and work?”

Lambs Supper : The Mass As Heaven On Earth
$25.00Add to cartBestselling author Scott Hahn sheds new light on the Mass, offering readers a deeper appreciation of the most familiar of Catholic rituals .
Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass fits Catholics like their favorite clothes. Yet most Catholics sitting in the pews on Sundays fail to see the powerful supernatural drama that enfolds them. Pope John Paul II described the Mass as “Heaven on Earth,” explaining that what “we celebrate on Earth is a mysterious participation in the heavenly liturgy.”
The Lamb’s Supper reveals a long-lost secret of the Church: The early Christians’ key to understanding the mysteries of the Mass was the New Testament Book of Revelation. With its bizarre imagery, its mystic visions of heaven, and its end-of-time prophecies, Revelation mirrors the sacrifice and celebration of the Eucharist.Beautifully written, in clear direct language, bestselling Catholic author Scott Hahn’s new book will help readers see the Mass with new eyes, pray the liturgy with a renewed heart, and enter into the Mass more fully, enthusiastically, intelligently, and powerfully than ever before.
