and Edith Stein 15% off all titles listed
|
|
St. Dominic and
St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross have their feast days this week. St. Dominic
is known for having founded the religious Order of the Dominicans, while
St. Edith Stein is known for her writings, and conversion to the Catholic faith from
the Jewish religion.
St. Dominic
founded the famous order of preachers, the Dominicans, an order which includes
prominent saints and churchmen, like St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Albert the Great,
and Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn. He is also the man who gave us the Rosary.
St. Teresa
Benedicta, better known as Edith Stein, was an accomplished Jewish woman
of the early 20th century. She became well-known as a philosophical teacher and writer,
and eventually converted to Catholicism after reading the autobiography of St.
Teresa of Avila. She was martyred in the concentration camps at Auschwitz in
1942 along with other Jewish converts to Catholicism.
These titles
include books about the lives of these great saints, as well as titles on the
Rosary, prominent Dominicans, and other great men and women of the
Church. |

 St.
Dominic and The Rosary
Catherine
Beebe
Saint Dominic led a life of
excitement and adventure. As a boy he sold his books to feed the poor and
offered himself as ransom for a prisoner. As a young priest he rode with a
king's cavalcade to carry a marriage offer to the princess of Denmark from the
prince of Castile. But his greatest adventures came when he walked from town to
town and preached the word of God and the power of the Holy Rosary. |

preaching the Gospel. He is the author of two best selling books on the Rosary.

history. He emphasizes that the Rosary is a means of contemplating the truth and
lingering in love with the Lord.
