The Rise and Progress of the Province of St. Joseph of the Capuchin Order in the United States, 1857-1907 (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of the Province of St. Joseph of the Capuchin Order in the United States, 1857-1907 The ancient Roman historian Sallust, in his his tory Of the conspiracy of Catiline, sets forth the opinion that while the great men of every coun try are its greatest benefactors, yet those who record their deeds also deserve the gratitude of their fellow men. In truth, this opinion hardly needs proof, for if one of the principal services rendered to his fatherland by the self-sacrificing hero consists in rousing his fellow citizens and posterity to emulate his glorious example, then certainly those who publish the inspiring deeds of others are also the preachers and further...
Blessed Solanus Casey
Whenever there was a knock at the Capuchin Monastery door, Fr. Solanus Casey answered. The Capuchin friar's prayers brought comfort and healing to visitors he greeted at friaries in Michigan, New York, and Indiana. On September 12, 2012, inside St. Bonaventure Monastery in Detroit, where Casey's remains are interred, a miracle happened. Minutes after a pilgrim knelt at Casey's tomb, signs of her lifelong genetic skin disease disappeared. Pope Francis declared the healing a miracle, and nearly 70,000 people filled a Detroit football stadium on November 18, 2017, for Casey's beatification ceremony, when the Catholic Church honored him with the title of "Blessed." The Wisconsin-born Casey, a onetime prison guard who died in 1957 at the age of 86, is now one step and one more miracle away from becoming a saint. The photographs in Blessed Solanus Casey illustrate the arc of his life and legacy, including images from his early years and ministry to the poor, of those who say they have been healed by his prayers, and of the stirring Catholic rituals accompanying the friar's path to possible sainthood.
The Franciscan Tradition
Saint Francis of Assisi is one of the most beloved saints. His commitment to God's will, his yearning to embrace poverty, and his attentiveness to the Spirit's presence in his life continue to inspire Christians and non-Christians alike. The Franciscan Tradition highlights some of the most influential people in Franciscan history. Using the writings of men and women from the First, Second, and Third Orders, this volume shows the breadth and depth of the Franciscan way of life. Presented here are saints and martyrs, contemplatives and preachers, theologians and reformers. They heeded God's call, found hope in Francis' mission, and now provide wisdom for those who seek to follow God. Regis J. ...

Phyllis
"She may be little, but she makes herself heard." Phyllis Katherine Arquette was a petite woman who wrote and placed the following saying on her refrigerator, "Keep moving Phyllis, always keep moving." This is the story of a woman who symbolizes all the unsung mothers of the world and a portrayal of an American family living in Detroit, Michigan, during a tumultuous time in history-all based on the real-life experiences of Phyllis Katherine Arquette. In the summer of 1928 on a beach on Belle Isle outside of Detroit, football player Bill O'Slattery and a little girl with blonde curls meet and change their destinies forever after she yells at him while standing in the line for the last ferry back to Detroit, "Hey, buster, no cutting in line! Who do you think you are?" And so began a wonderful romance between two gifted people that eventually resulted in the creation of an American family who survived tragedy, the Great Depression, and many other obstacles-but emerged stronger in the end. Phyllis reveals an innocence that permeated American society during the 1930s despite bad economic times, the glory days of Detroit, and a remarkable woman whose legacy still lives on today.
