In Caelo et in Terra - 365 Days with the Saints - Deluxe edition

"Thy kingdom come, thy will be done ... on earth as it is in heaven (sicut in caelo et in terra)." The saints were not picture perfect. They were real men and women who loved Jesus in the midst of their struggles with sin and suffering. They were lights in the darkness, prophets of hope, and beacons of peace in the most difficult moments of history. When faced with trials, they persevered in joy as they lived the Gospel in unique, fascinating, and inspiring ways. The Daughters of St. Paul at Pauline Books & Media noticed that most books on the lives of the saints are paperback and do not have a presentation as timeless or as beautiful as we believe the lives of the saints deserve. In Caelo et in Terra is the fruit of over a decade of writing, designing, and illustrating the ultimate hardcover tribute to the saints. Supported by the prayers of our sisters around the world, over thirty Daughters of St. Paul worked on this daily devotional in an effort to reflect the striking beauty of the saints, whose lives are a meeting place of heaven and earth. Each page of this timeless volume features a biography of a saint or blessed, a reflection on the significance of his or her life, a short prayer, and an original black-and-white illustration representing the life and holiness of that saint. The book also features: • Indices of names, patron saints, and feast days • Prayers written by the saints • Keepsake quality binding with a durable, gold-stamped cover and ribbon bookmark • Gilded pages, and exclusive and limited feature of the Deluxe Edition of In Caelo et in Terra Perfect for home, parish, and classroom libraries; First Communion or Confirmation; OCIA (formerly RCIA) candidates and catechumens; or to display at home as a beautiful conversation starter, In Caelo et in Terra will help you forge deeper bonds with holy men and women through the centuries who show us how to live in Christ. Let's become saints!
