St. Joseph, Model of Celibate Love

By Fr. Frederick Miller

"St. Joseph is a model for priests who act in the person of Christ, the Bridegroom of the Church, and who are fathers in the Holy Spirit of the People of God. It is helpful to explore some of the ways St. Joseph helps priests to be faithful to their vocation to celibate, fruitful love in the Church. In an absolutely silent manner, Joseph of Nazareth loving Mary and Jesus with a chaste heart, shows priests the ways of celibate love" (excerpts from the booklet).

Eucharist and Covenant in John’s Last Supper Account
(Jn 12:44-17:26)

By Msgr. Anthony La Femina. Foreword by Cardinal Raymond L. Burke.

"A gift to the Church."
-Cardinal Raymond L. Burke

"Daring and innovative but eminently compatible with Catholic doctrine."
-Fr. Aidan Nichols, O.P.

For centuries a dilemma has existed because St. John, whose Gospel alone mentions Jesus' promise of the Eucharist (Jn 6) and who wrote far more extensively about the Last Supper than did any of the other Gospel writers, apparently does not mention the fulfillment of the promise by the institution of the Eucharist. Why this puzzling omission?

In a groundbreaking new study, the fruit of 35 years of research and prayer, Msgr. Anthony La Femina proposes an astonishing solution to the problem. Moreover, he shows how St. John brings to light the specific nature of the New Covenant instituted by the Eucharist and what this covenant means for all persons. Much of this information has lain hidden for centuries--but is now available to all!

The book is of interest to both clergy and laity, particularly to those pursuing and teaching scriptural and theological studies.

101 Questions & Answers on the Eucharist

By Fr. Giles Dimock, OP.

Fr. Dimock, who has taught for 40 years, answers some of the most commonly asked questions about the Eucharist which have been posed to him in his preaching and teaching. He begins with questions on the Jewish background of the Eucharist, and then examines the Last Supper, transubstantiation, sacrifice, the Real Presence, intercommunion, and many other relevant topics.

The questions range from the straightforward “Why is the Eucharist called Holy Communion?” to “What is Forty Hours?” and the more involved, “What is said about the Eucharist in the Code of Canon Law?” Fr. Dimock culls the teaching of the Church on the Eucharist from conciliar and papal documents. Will satisfy the spiritual as well as the theological curiosity of college students, seminarians, and interested lay people.

Fr. Giles Dimock, OP, holds an STL in liturgy from Sant’Anselmo, Rome, and an STD from the Angelicum, Rome. He has taught at the Angelicum, the Josephinum, Franciscan University of Steubenville, and the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, DC. He is the author of numerous articles and books, and is a member of the Society of Catholic Liturgy and Fellowship of Catholic Scholars.

The Grace of Ars

By Fr. Frederick Miller

From the foreword by Archbishop Raymond Burke: “Fr. Miller has taken many groups of priests and seminarians on pilgrimage to Ars, France where he leads retreats based on the life and ministry of St. John Vianney.... [T]his book is the distillation of wisdom and grace that St. John Vianney has passed on to his brother priests.

 “Including eight pages of color illustrations, this is a treasury of spiritual wisdom that will take you along on a pilgrimage to the very place where St. John Vianney labored so long and so heroically for the good of souls and the love of God, often in direct battle with Satan. The reader will have the experience of making a retreat in the presence of the saintly Curé, and be able to ponder the Grace of Ars, in particular what he has to say to his fellow priests of the twenty-first century, another difficult time for those who seek to be faithful to their promises to God and build up the Church of Christ.

“Laymen will find in this reflection on St. John Vianney a model parish priest who will inspire all to love the priesthood and pray for the sanctification of all priests. Priests and seminarians who wish to strengthen their commitment to the priesthood as well as men who are discerning the call of Christ in their lives will be inspired and encouraged by reflection on the life and vocation of the great Curé of Ars. Through his holy example the Curé of Ars will help all understand that the priesthood is the love of the Heart of Jesus.”
