Even after all of the modern “revisions” of the bible that are now available to Catholics, many still think that the Douay-Rheims version, (the only English translation of the Catholic Vulgate bible in use for almost 400 years) is the most accurate ever produced. We at Loreto agree that what was good enough for fifty generations of English-speaking Catholics and countless Saints and Martyrs is still good enough for us.

scripture & commentary scripture & commentary

Many saints were distin-guished for their ardent devo-tion to the Holy Ghost. The seraphic virgin Teresa began nearly all her letters with the pious wish and blessing: “May

the Holy Spirit (or the grace of the Holy Ghost) be with you at all times.”

What is good about The Woman of Genesis is not only the par-ticular points which it makes on the question of the Proto-evangelium, but also the solid principles on the larger biblical

questions that it inculcates throughout. Today the bible is not under critical study, it is under attack. Rather than refute them we must repel the attack. —Father Thomas Carleton

cornelius a lapidecommentaries on the scriptures

Cornelius a Lapide created a Scripture Commentary so complete and scholarly that it was practically the universal commentary in use by Catholics for hundreds of years.

Pray the Holy MassFr. Paul Trinchard, S.J., STL


This book is a commentary on the importance of the Holy Sacrifice in the life of every Christian. Much of the book is summarized from St. Leonard of Port Maurice’s work The Hidden Treasure

of the Mass. “Don’t pray at Mass, but pray the Holy Mass... the highest prayer that exists....” St. Pius X

The Purgatorian Manual


Counsels to ConfessorsSt. Leonard of Port Maurice


This book is exactly what the title implies, sound advice for the healing of souls in the con-fessional. Saint Leonard was one of the great confessors of all time. He was a Franciscan and a missionary preacher and

a great miracle worker as well!

the liturgical year

The holy abbot, Dom Prosper Guéranger, takes the reader on a daily spiritual pilgrimage through the liturgies of both the East and the West as he immerses the soul into the very life of the ecclesia orans et adorans (the church praying and adoring). The author achieves this by providing daily entries corresponding to

the yearly cycle of the Church’s worship in both her divine seasonal feasts and those of her saints.

This is a book to be read and studied for a lifetime. Even a once through reading will immeasurably increase your knowledge and love of the history and true liturgical life of the Church.

Dom Prosper Guéranger, O.S.B. • 7418 pages • 15 volumes • Softcover • $249Dom Prosper Guéranger, O.S.B. There has never been a book that so well elucidates how the active participation in the Holy Sacrifice, which is the duty of all the laity, can best be accomplished. This was written after The Liturgical Year and was the last book translated by Dom Laurence Shepard, Guéranger’s disciple, before his own death. This book is meant to be a companion volume to the The Liturgical Year, and it perfectly matches the set.

Treasures of the MassBenedict Sisters of the Perpetual Adoration - 1940s edition


After nearly a half-century of liturgical “renewal” which largely consisted of “experi-ments” with the Holy Sacri-fice, Pope Benedict XVI, has issued Summorum Pontificum,

in which he urges the Bishops to encourage and aid the celebration of the liturgy of the Roman rite in the ancient form.

Wartime Prayerbook

Softcover-190 Pages • $9.95

Written for soldiers by Msgr. Fulton Sheen in the darkest moments of World War II, this small prayer book has been proven in combat and hallowed by the suffering, prayers, and sacrifices of thousands of Catholic fighting

men and women in battle and in hellish prisoner of war camps across Europe and the Pacific.

The Storm NovenaSt. Benedict the Moor Mission


This novena is one of the most unusual and powerful you have ever encountered. It is typically American, and very modern. It comports well with the up-tempo pace of our lives today. The pub-

lisher of this book can personally attest to its efficacy, having had his prayers answered more than once praying this powerful novena.

The Suicide of Altering the Faith in the LiturgyFr. Paul Kramer, B. Ph., S.T.B., M. Div., S.T.L.


“I am worried by the Blessed Virgin’s messages to Lucy of Fatima. The persistence of Mary about the dangers which menace the Church is

a divine warning against the suicide of alter-ing the Faith in her liturgy.” — Pius XII in Devant L’Histoire

Witnesses to the Holy Mass and Other Sermons


“The gripping stories recount-ed will inspire not only a devotion to these saints, but also a renewed passion for the holy Mass that these holy

men and women shed their blood to preserve.” — The Catholic Answer–March/April 2005

The Great SacrilegeFr. James Wathen, S.J.


In 1971, amidst the chaos and confusion wrought by the Second Vatican Council and the advent of the Novus Ordo Missae, faithful Catholics craved clarity and direction. TAN Books published this

strong critique of the New Mass shortly after the famous Intervention of Cardinals Ottaviani & Bacci was issued.

Revised under Pope Pius XII, this official collection (raccolta) of the Church’s prayers and devotions was published in English in 1957. It includes a timely supplement of additional prayers for many urgent needs all of which were composed under the same pontiff. Many of the more commonly used prayers and devo-tions are followed by the Latin text, thus providing the perfect aid for teachers and parents anxious to keep the Church’s language both alive and spiritually efficacious.

manna of the soullarge print prayerbook




The primary act of Christian worship is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass—the death of Our Lord on Calvary re-enacted daily on our altars. Archbishop Fulton Sheen

here gives us a series of sublime meditations on Calvary and the Mass. They are arranged in seven sections paired with the seven last words of Our Lord.

The ancient prayers in this book are shown in both Latin and English text. The left page is Latin and the right page English. This layout method is easier to

read than when the English and Latin are split in two columns on the same page.

1954 Imprimatur Com-plete edition - Latin & English - PB 5.5” x 8.25”. This edition has larger type and is much more complete than the small

edition of the Little Office. Recommended by Pope Pius XII.

“I began to pray the “Heart of Jesus Families Novena” as soon as it arrived. Its content and size invites one to pray at first sight. Having prayed the Novena now for three days, I will pray this novena every day as part of my morning prayers. Every Catholic who desires to deepen their faith must have this book. There is much solace on every page and the love of the Sacred Heart issues forth with every word. Thank you for such a beautiful treasure. May the Lord Jesus and our Blessed Mother bless your apostolate of saving souls.”

heart of jesus families novena

Historically Dom Guéranger and Pope Saint Pius X are truly at the origin of the liturgical movement, that is, “the renewal of fervor for the liturgy among the clergy and the faithful.” But it is a false and pernicious claim that there has been a “homogeneous development” in the movement begun by them resulting in the New Order of Mass!

This book helps us to know what to reject and what we must carefully conserve of the liturgical movement.

This book is the indispensable rubrical resource for the traditional Roman Liturgy. This book is valued by clergy and laity alike, not only for its concise handling of the general rubrics, but also for its chapters that briefly describe the history of the development of the traditional Roman Mass, liturgical law, the proper understanding of the force of custom, the importance of the decisions made by the Sacred Congregation of Rites and the opinions of fellow rubricians.

“I was dismayed at the prohi-bition of the old missal, since nothing of the sort had ever happened in the entire history of the liturgy. The impression was given that what has hap-

to the missal. This book describes the ancient Roman Liturgy not the Mass commonly in use since 1969.

Dom Jacques HourlierThis is a contemplative

book, reflecting upon the characteristics of Gregorian chant that have attracted

the attention of so many: its permanence, beauty, history, and its liturgical, sacred, and

philosophical qualities.

Dom Louis SoltnerThis history of Solesmes and

its founder Dom Guéranger is an excellent work published by the Monks of Solesmes. It tells the story of one of the greatest scholars and saintly men of the 19th century, and chronicles the enduring work that he

We have chosen to re-issue the Third Turin Edition of the Roman Martyrology for many reasons. Among them are the nobility of its style, the serene chastity of its language, the continuity of its ancient lineage, and the fact that it is essentially the same text read by countless souls over the centuries on their pilgrimage to the Eternal Jerusalem. In a word: tradition.

The historical importance and the spiritual value of this edition is inestimable. We hope that this offering from Loreto will fill the desires of many souls who will know best how to utilize this volume to their advantage. The 20th

century may well have been the bloodiest in the long and glorious history of the Church of God upon earth. Remember that the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church. God willing, we will reap a bountiful harvest of souls in the 21st century.

May the example of those who have already tread the path of the cross, fortify our souls, give us courage, and provide hope that we too may have the grace to receive, with grateful affection, whatever end the providence of God has destined for us.

Philosophia Perennis, Vol. 1: An Introduction


In imitation of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Brother Francis teaches the wisdom of natural philosophic truth under the light of supernatural reve-lation. After the Word was

made flesh and dwelt among us, there is no other way to teach natural wisdom except as the handmaid of theology.

Br. Francis Maluf, M.I.C.M.

Philosophia Perennis, Vol. III: Cosmology


Without sound philosophy to set the limits of scientific inquiry and regulate its mod-ern tendency for cosmological usurpation, science degen-erates into scientism. God

is the Creator of the universe. All things are ordered to His ends. All matter is at the service of man’s supernatural vocation.

Mary PerkinsMary Perkins worked for Sheed & Ward publishers in the 1930s and was a close friend of Fr. Leonard Feeney who encouraged her to publish this book. It is without doubt the best Latin textbook for a neophyte who wishes to learn well the language of Holy Mother Church. The Latin is taken directly from the Missal and as a teaching tool this book is simple and thorough and not intimidating. Highly recommended, especially for Catholic home-schoolers or anyone new to our language.

Don Pietro LeoneThis book was published and distributed by Loreto to many En-glish speaking prelates before the 2015 Synod on the Family in Rome. Since that time the topic of family life has become more and more intensly debated inside and outside the Church. Not only is God’s Church now openly attacked, but the very basis of all human society is being undermined. This is a scholarly, but very readable defense of the supernatural and natural life of the family. Highly recommended!

Here are over 11,000 words—gathered from Scriptures (including the new Latin Psalter), the Breviary, the Missal, and other church books—a good percentage

of which are not to be found at all in classical dictionaries, and almost all of which have a peculiar meaning in ecclesiastical use.

This work contains over 1,600 entries and sub-en-tries of scholastic terms and phrases, and includes over 30 charts and diagrams pro-viding information on such

topics as the divisions of act and potency, the kinds of appetites, the categories of being, the types of law and their relations one to the other, the powers of man, and more.

Romano AmerioRomano Amerio, Italian by nationality, was a man of broad and classi-cal erudition, who taught philosophy, Greek and Latin at the Acade-my of Lugano, Switzerland from 1928 to 1970. He was an episcopal consultant to the Central Preparatory Commission of Vatican II and was a peritus for the Bishop of Lugano during the Council. A true insider to the Council’s activities. He was a friend of the late Cardi-nal Siri of Genoa and died in 1997. This is the best book written so far on the philosophy and theology of the Council.

The Angels and Their MissionJean Daniélou


Here you’ll find no sentimen-tal cherubs: the Fathers knew that majesty and power cloak actual angels, which is why God gave them the formida-ble tasks of shepherding not

only souls, but entire nations, and the motions of the entire material universe itself.

Fire of Love: Understanding Purgatory


Five hundred years ago, Fire of Love! transformed the world’s view of Purgatory, revealing these purifying

fires to be the glow of God’s love. Now is the time to transform your own view of Purgatory, and to discover the sweet manifestation of the unfathomable depths of God’s love.

Father Feeney and the Truth About SalvationBr. Robert Mary, M.I.C.M., T.


This is a thorough defense of the Church’s infallibly defined dogma, “No Salvation Out-side the Church.” Copious references from the Fathers and Doctors of the Church,

learned and holy theologians and Magisterial pronouncements make this authoritative study useful for anyone interested in learning more about this subject.

The Mystical Body and Its Head


Msgr. Benson, a convert and famous author of Lord of the World, here gives us a magnif-icent explanation of what the Church really is—the Body of Christ. We are incorporated

into His body and He is the head of that body. The Church is truly the Mystical Body of Christ.

M.L. CozensSaint Paul in 1Cor. 11:19 says “For there must be also heresies: that they also, who are approved, may be made manifest among you.” Now at first impression that might seem an odd thing for Saint Paul to say— that there must be heresies? Yet the verse gives its own explanation. It is so that truth (those approved teachers and believers) may be made clear among you. It is often the case that truth or light stands out more clearly when contrasted against untruth or darkness—and there seems to be plenty of darkness in the world today.

Catholicity & Baptism are Necessary for Salvation


This book contains two articles —The Dogma of Faith, and a theological discussion of the possibility of a second type of baptism—the so-called

“baptism of desire”, especially as it appears in the writings of St. Augustine and other Fathers and Doctors of the Church.

The Dogma of Faith: “Outside the Church There is No Salvation”


This article was written in 1974 to defend the clear and unambiguous meaning of the thrice defined dogma: Extra

Ecclesiam Nulla Salus. This is not a dry theolog-ical treatise but a spirited defense of Our Lord’s words and the Church’s teaching authority.

All About SalvationFr. Paul Trinchard


All About Salvation asks and answers the questions that all of us have about salvation. It will prove to be controversial, yet fully satisfying, for those of good will. Fr. Trinchard has authored a very popular col-

umn in The Remnant newspaper and he wrote a weekly scripture column, as well as editorials in the The Wanderer for 17 years.

Baptism: Man’s Contract With God


Although not intended as a catechism on baptism, it is strongly recommended that any teenager read it before confirmation and that any adult convert read it before

their entrance into the church, as there is no better explanation we have ever seen of the practical (not theological) nature and effect of baptism.

Sister Catherine Goddard Clarke, M.I.C.M.This is a powerfully written defense of No Salvation Outside the Church and a clear and lucid explanation of Saint Benedict Center’s almost single-handed defense of it during the years of the famous “Boston Heresy case” when Fr. Leonard Feeney and the Center accused some Jesuits at Boston College and Archbishop Cushing of Boston of promoting heretical teach-ings. This is a magnificent and unforgettable testimonial to the power of dogma and the simple faith of Catholics.

The Sign of the CrossMsgr. Gaumé


The holy Sign of the Cross is the most important prayer and symbol of our Christian faith. It is at once the image of Christ’s passion, the sign of the redemption of all mankind, and the awesome

testament of the destruction of the power of the devil and of his kingdom on earth.

manual ofdogmatic theology

Many Catholics living today can re-member when priests were well trained in theology and could express the Faith prop-erly in their sermons and in their writing. That is because they were given sound teach-ing at the seminary in Logic, Philosophy, and Dogmatic Theology from textbooks such as this 12 volume set. The famous Pohle-Preuss manual was used in many seminaries in America and other countries prior to the 1950’s when the quality of sem-inary training began to degenerate.

This particular manual was used in the Jesuit seminary where Fr. Leonard Feeney, who was one called by his Jesuit superior “the greatest theologian we have in

America...by far” was trained. This beautiful hardbound series is an exact reproduction of the edition originally published in 1911, and it was written by Rt. Rev. Msgr. Joseph Pohle and edited by Arthur Preuss.

Joseph Pohle was a Jesuit and one of the founding faculty members of the Catholic University of America as well as a frequent contributor to the Catholic Encyclopedia. He died in 1922 after having produced one of the clearest and most succinct and use-ful systematic studies of Catholic theology ever published. This series is invaluable for priests, seminarians, and anyone interested in a systematic study of dogmatic theology.

St. John EudesHerein are delineated not only the standards, but also sound advice on how to maintain them and how to achieve, for the greatest possible glory of God, the heights of efficacy and sanctity possible through the sublime office of the priesthood. Primarily directed to the priest, this incompa-rable series of treatises and meditations should also be profitably read by all Catholics and even those non-Catholics who are interested to discover what the Church holds and teaches regarding the priesthood. This is great reading for priest and layman alike!.

Without a doubt, this is the best brief presentation of the Catholic Faith to non-Catho-lics available anywhere today. Not only is it a terrific help in sharing our Catholic Faith with others, it contains so

much important information that it is a perfect brush-up course for Catholics as well.

True Devotion to the Holy SpiritAbp. Luis M. Martinez


In this age of charismatic emotionalism and aberrant neo-Montanistic Pentecostal-ism, a definitive and scrip-turally based book on true devotion to the Holy Spirit is

as welcome as it is provident. This is a spiritual classic!

The Writings of Ven. Demetrius Augustin Gallitzin


The Russian Prince and Catholic priest who wrote this defense of Holy Scripture against the protestant heretics of his day is known as the

Apostle of the Alleghenies, and his cause at Rome is proceeding. He was instrumental in founding the town of Loretto Pennsylvania.

The Liberal Illusion


Louis Veuillot’s mid-19th century condemnation of liberal Catholicism throws a flood of light on the crisis of Church and world following on the Second Vatican Coun-cil. Catholics who read The

Liberal Illusion will grasp, once and for all, that the crisis is primarily due not to Vatican II, but to a centuries-long struggle between Revelation and Revolution.

The Papal Plan for Restoration: Restoring the Catholic Priesthood

Michael Malone


As the title suggests, this book describes a plan taken from key papal encyclicals that

engendered and safeguarded the vitality of the Catholic Faith in the prospering pre-Conciliar Church.

The Only Begotten


In this very well-reasoned book, Michael Malone brings our attention to a number of learned authori-ties who teach that Our Lady was indeed baptized. He

makes a very clear and logical case for this to have been so, and further to have been neces-sary for her to be a member of the Church.

Three Pillars of Faith in the Real PresenceEdward Snyder


Ordination - Offertory - ConsecrationThis philological study of the Hebrew root of words used in the scriptures and the liturgy will be most

useful as an aid to understanding why clarity of belief is disappearing so rapidly in the Church of our day.

In this age of doctrinal latitude and speculative innovation there is a pressing need for a comprehensive source book on authentic Catholic dogma that is magisterially anchored while at the same time both practical and non-voluminous. You have such a book in this English translation of Father Hein-rich Denzinger’s Enchiridion Symbolorum et Definitionum. 30th edition 1954.


The sources of catholic dogma (denzinger)

Two years before he died, St. Thomas Aquinas — probably the greatest teacher the Church has ever known — was asked by his assistant, Brother Reginald, to write a simple summary of the Faith of the Catholic Church for those who lacked the time or the stamina to tackle his massive Summa Theologica.In response, the great saint quickly set down — in language that non-scholars can understand — his peerless insights into the major topics of theology: the Trinity, Divine Prov-idence, the Incarnation of Christ, the Last Judgment, and much more.

Who Are You, O Immaculata?Father Karl Stehlin


This treatise is one of the most succinct and clear explanations of the complete economy of salvation ever penned. The full role of the Immaculata is explored and refined, and its

relevance to the world in our time is detailed in an easy to read and understand format. This is militant Catholic theology made simple.

Fifty Meditations on the PassionArchbishop Alban Goodier, S.J.

William L. Biersach


Abp. Goodier published these 50 Meditations in 1925.

“These notes were written a long time ago in Lent, 1909.

… They were written for two only; but others who have

seen them have found them useful and have asked that they may be printed.”

Of Mary There is Never Enough


A tribute to the Blessed Vir-gin Mother that is unequaled in our times. Drawing on the ancient Fathers and Doctors of the Church and on the

hidden Scriptures which tell of the love of God for this singular beauty of His creation.

A Catholic Mother Speaks to Her ChildrenAdapted by Debra Ann Booton


The Countess deFlavigny wrote this series of short med-itative stories to read to her children and grandchildren. They are designed to implant in the receptive minds of

young children a love of their faith and a knowl-edge of their duties.

Our Lady of Perpetual HelpRev. Francis J. Connell, C.SS.R.


Tradition holds that the origi-nal of this miraculous painting was created by Saint Luke the Evangelist The original was destroyed by the Mos-lem invaders who conquered

Constantinople in 1453. It had been venerated there since the 5th century. The most famous copy of it is now in Rome. This is the story of that painting.

Thoughts on MaryFr. James F. Wathen


Ten points of medition, tak-en from scripture, introduce us to the simple maiden of Nazareth who is the Mother of the Incarnate God and the love of the priestly heart of Father Wathen, whose life

was dedicated to defending her honor and the Holy Sacrifce of her divine Son, our Redeemer and Savior.

Doubling the Mother of GodRev. Fr. Raymond O.C.S.O.


Theologically sound and based upon years of medita-tion, especially on the doc-trines of the mystical body, this work is certain to be of interest to all who are called

to be mothers. It was written by a Trappist as a letter to his sister who was a nun.

Mary in Her Scapular PromiseJohn Matthias Haffert

The Most Rev. William Ullathorne


The book contains 15 chap-ters, including: The Origin of the Promise, Meaning of the Promise, Historicity of the Promise, How the Promise is Kept, Scapular Prayer and

Communication of Benefits, and much more. This is the most complete book on the subject we have seen.

The Immaculate Conception of the Mother of God


Archbishop Ullathorne is not original, but masterful, in his explanation of Mary’s royal relationship with the angels

as well as men, for she it was who gave the Incarnate God the flesh and blood by means of which all the elect achieved their salvation.

The Miraculous MedalFr. M. Aladel, C.M.


The principal author of this book, Father Aladel, was a member of the Congregation of the Missions founded by Saint Vincent de Paul. More importantly, he was the spir-itual director and confessor

of Saint Catherine Laboure to whom the Miraculous Medal was given.

The Admirable Heart of MarySt. John Eudes


The Admirable Heart of Mary was given to us from the Cross by Jesus Christ. Truly this heart was the first-fruit of His Passion, given to all of Mary’s children, that it might

be honored, cherished, invoked and, ultimately, with that of her Son, reproduced in them. This is the essence of the spirituality of John Eudes.

Devotion to the Blessed VirginBp. Jacques Benigne Bossuet


From Bossuet’s teaching we learn that, to quote Cardinal Manning’s words, “the titles of honor given to Mary are not metaphors but truths—

they express, not poetical or rhetorical ideas, but true and living relations between her and her Divine Son and between her and ourselves.”



The Desert FathersThe Beauty of Thy HouseMark Allessio


Written by a young American who has found his way to God through a long and ar-duous path whose destination was made clear because of his love for God’s mother, this

plea of praise for her is uplifting and timely.

The Devotion to the Holy Rosary and Five Scapulars

Translated by Helen Waddell


Not only does Father Müller explain what the rosary is, but what the rosary should be. After reading this devoted author, we assure you, you will never again say

the rosary mechanically, or wear the scapular apathetically.


The original of these transla-tions is the Latin of the Vitae Patrum, a vast collection of the lives and sayings of the Desert Fathers, edited by the learned Rosweyde, and printed at the Plantin press

in Antwerp in 1615. The original ran to 1600 pages. These extracts assembled by Helen Wad-dell are among the best.

The Difficult CommandmentC.C. Martindale, S.J.


Father Martindale’s is a truly helpful book on the study of sex psychology. The author shows a profound knowl-edge of his subject and dis-cusses with much penetation,

lucudity, and candor the difficult problem of control of the sexual instinct.

Abide in my loveTranslated by Michael J. Miller


Ascetic and pastoral reflec-tions for young priests, that they may become apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Based on the 6th French edi-tion (Paris: Téqui) This book was composed shortly after

World War I by an Italian priest who wished to remain anonymous. Please also see the Novena book on page 10 of this catalog.

These three books full of stunning images are a great tool for assisting the faithful as a spur to deeper meditation on the 15 mysteries of the most holy rosary.

“Saying my Rosary and looking at the pictures really helps me, and I am certain this will assist others. You are doing a great work for God - a

wonderful apostolate!” - Father Thomas Gillissie “I am happy to give my endorsement to the pub-lication of your book(s)…I wish you lots of luck in getting this beautiful work into the hands of a great many people. With God’s blessings it will indeed happen.”

- Joseph P. Delaney, Bishop of Fort Worth

The Rosary Pictoral Set At Your Ease in the Catholic ChurchMary Perkins


This is, we believe, the first “book of etiquette for Cath-olics” ever published. It is especially helpful for converts, but is also interesting for life-long Catholics who have

little or no knowledge of the proper manners expected from a Catholic. Published in 1938, it explains how things were in the Church before Vatican II.

A Retreat with Saint TheresePere Liagre, C.S.Sp.


This “retreat in a book” presents to the busy reader of today a perfect little tool to assist in translating from inspiration to action, the ex-quisite lessons gleaned from

A Trappist Gives Whispers From the WingsRev. Fr. Raymond O.C.S.O.

job is to know our part perfectly and perform it heroically.

The Life of the Good ThiefMsgr. Gaume


Advocate of God and consoler of Mary, this is the story of the “first” thief, St. Dismas, whose wonderful eleventh hour conversion and defense of the holy Kingship of Christ

on Calvary, merited him the everlasting title, “The Good.”

The Mystery of the Crown of Thornsby a Passionist Father, C.P.

Dom Guéranger


Contemplating the Holy Face on the Shroud of Turin, one sees a deep wound on the forehead of our Savior where one of the many thorns of His cruel crown punctured

that very spot above His eyes where His mem-bers in the Church are marked who enter rightly into the penitential season of Lent.

The Medal or Cross of Saint Benedict


St. Benedict, father of western monasticism, is more known for his life and Rule than for a medal cast in his honor. The history of the image and the exorcism

engraved on the medal, as well as the power of that Cross which the holy Abbot bears in his right hand, can be traced to the 11th century.

Patience and Humility: A Handbook for ChristiansWilliam Ullathorne


Humility, indeed every virtue, must be grounded in HIm Who is meek and humble of Heart. It was God the Son Who first humbled Himself by

emptying Himself and becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross.

How to Resist TemptationFr. Francis J. Remler, C.M.


You’ve no doubt taken steps to ensure your safety — and your family’s — from various kinds of worldly calamities. But if you haven’t made sure

you’re properly on guard against temptations, you’re setting yourself up for a spiritual disaster of immense proportions.

The Gift of Self to GodFr. John Nicholas Grou, S.J.


The Gift of Self to God, which is the heart of the composi-tion, is an extremely provok-ing and healing meditation dealing with the necessity and salutary advantage of giving our all to God. It is a

perfect compliment to the spirit of Saint Louis Marie de Montfort’s True Devotion to Mary.

The Hidden Power of KindnessLawrence G. Lovasik

Rosalie Marie Levy


Fr. Lawrence Lovasik brings you simple directions for how to overcome unkind habits that can creep, undetected, into your behavior. If you want to make progress in the

spiritual life, don’t miss these insights, they’ll give you years of solid help to grow in charity and truly transform your corner of the world!

The Heavenly Road


This brief treatise was written by a woman who converted from Judaism in the early days of the 20th century and who, in her zeal to convince her fellow Jews of the wisdom of her conversion, wrote

much in defense of Our Lord and his Church. See her other book Why Jews Convert.

The Holy House of LoretoRev. G. E. Phillips


This history of the Holy House of Loreto is the most decisive work in English defending the authenticity of this most hallowed shrine in all Christendom. Our Lady’s

Holy House at Nazareth was taken by angels in 1291 to Dalmatia (Croatia) and then to Italy to prevent its desecration by the infidels.

Finding God’s Will for YouSt. Francis de Sales


If your life seems to make no sense, or if you don’t know which path to take, St. Francis de Sales will console and inform you. In this warm little book, he explains to you

what God’s will is and how He reveals it — yes, even to you, and even in the seemingly random events of your life.

Trent Beattie Are you deeply concerned about religion, not simply as a devout soul, but to the point of being frantic? Are little, inconsequential things the occasion of losing your peace of mind? Do you feel as though you need to repeat what has already been sufficiently done, such as a confession? If so, you’re likely suffering from scrupulosity. Far from being taken as insurmountable obstacles, many saints emerged from their scruples into the clarity of God’s truth and merciful love in His Church.


scruples and sainthood: overcoming scrupulosity

with the help of the saints



The Challenge of FaithThe Wisdom of Saint Francis de Sales


During his lifetime St. Fran-cis wrote many books and innumerable letters of spiritu-al advice. He was known far and wide as the best spiritual director of his day. This com-pilation of gems of wisdom

from this great Doctor of souls is a small tribute to his genius and sanctity and a book from you will derive much consolation.

Patience: Meditations for a MonthRichard F. Clarke, S.J.



Patience and suffering go hand in hand, since the most important work that we do in this life is to suffer well and to offer that suffering in union with the redemptive sufferings

of Our Blessed Lord and his most Sorrowful Mother. Patience is one of the most important virtues to acquire and practice magnanimously.


The salient theme throughout Brother Maluf ’s daily reflec-tions is that every challenge one experiences in this way-faring state has the capacity to elevate our human frailty

to supernatural heights if we engage it with the magnanimous attitude of confident sons of God. This is a book that you will return to time and time again!

The Spiritual LifeFather Jean Nicolas Grou


Our times are not so far removed from the Godless irrationality that swept across France in Fr. Grou’s day. That’s why we decided to republish The Spiritual Life, and to do so quickly. It’s

the one guide you need to help you navigate the treacherous spiritual waters of today’s world, and through it all, to keep the Faith.

The Valiant Woman: Conferences for WomenArchbishop Landriot


This spiritual classis is a guide for women who want to achieve sanctity in the home, and is meant to help women to raise children well and

keep their families Catholic. Reading this book is the best thing you could do for your husband and children, as well as for yourself.

Why Must I Suffer?Rev. F. J. Remler, C.M.


We will have our lot of suf-fering in this life. There is no escaping that. The question is how to benefit from it indi-vidually unto our everlasting glory and happiness in heav-en. Suffering and death are

part of our debt due to original sin. Therefore, they are necessary for our good.

Spiritual CombatDom Lorenzo Scupoli


St. Francis de Sales carried a copy of this in his pocket for 18 years! Its wisdom formed his soul, it inspired him to a life of the deepest devotion, and ultimately it helped him become one of the Church’s

greatest saints and doctors! In the battle to save your soul, this book is an invaluable weapon.

Searching for Fine PearlsMario M. Peterson

Dom Columba Marmion


This is an easy-to-read summary of the monumental Catholic classic The Mystical City of God written by Ven. Mary of Agreda, a 17th cen-tury Franciscan abbess, who

had mystical visions and revelations concerning many intimate details of the life of our Lord and his Blessed Mother.

Suffering with Christ


He was born in Dublin, in 1858, the year that our Lady appeared at Lourdes, and he died on January 30, 1923. Rarely will one find such great spiritual treasures as are contained herein, except

from other masters of the spiritual life, such as St. Francis deSales or Saint John of the Cross.

Treatise on the Spiritual LifeSaint Vincent Ferrer


Any book written by a saint is a treasure, but a book written by one, who was hailed in his time as the “Angel of the Apocalypse,” is priceless. This treatise consists of nineteen

brief instructions on a variety of timeless spiritual topics, all but two of which are easily translatable to the lay apostles of today.

Saints for SinnersArchbishop Alban Goodier


As Alban Goodier’s classic Saints for Sinners shows us, even the greatest saints had to battle the same stubborn vices, temptations of the flesh, and bouts of spiritual dryness that afflict you and me today.

Archbishop Goodier brings us the tales of en-couragement from the saints.

How To Make A Good ConfessionJohn A. Kane


This down-to-earth, practi-cal guide shows you how to transform your confessions from embarrassing moments in a dark room into profound

experiences of God’s love. The author, Fr. John Kane, provides solid guidelines for how you can (and must) make the most effective possible use of the Sacrament of Reconciliation in your battles against sin.

months or years in study, can get a wonderful grasp of the essentials by reading this compel-ling narrative of some critical events.

The Continuity of ReligionBishop Bossuet


As you read this book you will understand how it is that nothing of the ancient cov-enant was left unfulfilled in Christ and/or in the Church,

His Mystical body. This book is not merely a history—it is the Philosophy of History—His-tory as God wants us to see it!

The Battleground Syria and Palestine: The Seedplot of ReligionHilaire Belloc


All of the various “religions” of men are still today at war on that precious piece of land that the great Belloc has de-scribed in this masterful work

as THE battleground. What is happening today in Syria is simply the modern manifestation of what Belloc wrote of years ago.

Charles II: The Last RallyHilaire Belloc

Hilaire Belloc


“If kingship would have re-mained, the Peasantry would have been saved. Also there would have been a consider-able and well-organised tradi-tional Catholic body, . . . As

it was, with the fall of the Stuarts, the Catholic Church in England was utterly crushed out.“


Belloc has written elsewhere that the victory of the Reformation in England led to its victory in much of the rest of Europe. That victory unleashed the forces of social disintegration, Protestantism,

Capitalism, and anti-Catholicism and let them to challenge the tradition of Monarchy on the field of battle.

The Conversion of Marie-Alphonse RatisbonneBaron Théodore de Bussieres


Alphonse Ratisbonne was a French Jew who was mi-raculously converted while at Rome in the Church of San Andrea della Frate. His

brother had previously converted and become a Catholic priest, but Alphonse hated the Catho-lic church and vowed never to enter.

The Spiritual Life of Cardinal Merry del ValReverend Jerome Dal-Gal


Saint Pius X had as his Secre-tary of State a man who was eminently worth of his holy pontificate—Cardinal Merry del Val. He is of course best known as the architect and

executor of St. Pius X’s war against Modernism. His life was not one of merely temporal great-ness. He was a profoundly humble and virtuous man as well.

Alice Curtayne brings to these stories of Irish saints a rich grasp and a deep love of the Catholic faith of her native Ireland. She has unerringly chosen stories which will ap-peal to readers young and old,

and she tells them with the poetry and feeling that mark the work of every true Irish storyteller.

Msgr. Philip HughesThe temptation of the Church historian is to begin at the beginning and then go steadily on, the second century following the first and the third the second etc. It is a temptation that Msgr. Hughes has resisted. He has seen a better principle. The Church was born into the world, and the first phase of her history is in that world, the world that was already there. But gradually she remade that world and the second, quite different, phase of her history was in the world she had made. Then the world Revolted. Thus book three.

A History of the Catholic Church Set



The End of the Present WorldFr. Charles Arminjon

The Last Crusade


This most recent Catholic crusade was fought in Spain in the year 1936. It was fought by the good in hope that a dynasty once proudly called ‘most Catholic’ would rise again to rule this great

country. The agenda of the forces fighting against Franco was not to liberate an oppressed people, rather it was to bury the monarchy and the Catholic Church.

The Mystery of the Wizard ClipRaphael Brown


This tale is almost too strange for belief. It features a Russian prince, a Lutheran family, an Irish priest, several Protestant minis-ters, diabolical activity, traveling

salesmen, and Colonial farmers, as well as delicate and intricate family relationships. It has all of the elements of an exciting Catholic novel...AND IT IS ALL TRUE! Don’t miss this wonderful story.

Characters from the Gospels - Thirty-Six SketchesMsgr. Francis J. Weber

The Sacred Heart of JesusSaint John Eudes

The Loyolas and the CabotsCatherine Goddard Clarke


Did you ever hear of Father Feeney? This book tells how the authorities in the Boston Archdiocese and the Society of Jesus (Loyolas) teamed up with the Boston Yankee Masons

(Cabots) to silence a priest whose embarrassing insistence on Catholic doctrine disturbed their liberal agenda. An inspiring story, well told.

They Fought the Good FightBr. Thomas Mary Sennott, M.I.C.M.


This excellent biography of two great American apostles Orestes Brownson and Fr. Leonard Feeney and their defense of the dogma “No

Salvation Outside the Church” should be read by all Catholic Americans.

Gary PotterTo go after something is to inquire into it, to be in search of it, to seek the truth about it. In this book, veteran Catholic journalist Gary Potter goes after the truth concerning one of last century’s principal religious controversies, the so-called Boston Heresy Case, and its chief figure, Rev. Leonard Feeney, S.J. “In an era when our Catholic people and pro-spective converts are being force-fed on a starvation diet of watered-down doctrine and junk-food liturgy, Gary Potter has provided a banquet for the heart and soul.”

Isabel of Spain: The Catholic QueenWarren H. Carroll


Isabel of Spain has always captivated historians, pro and con. According to histo-rian Warren Carroll, she was not only the greatest woman monarch to rule in Chris-

tendom, but she is also eminently canonizable. A woman of prayer and courageous action, she was also a devoted wife and mother.

Padre ProFanchón Royer


Miguel Pro was born in 1891. He was the third of eleven children, four of whom had died as infants or young children. He entered the Jesuit novitiate at El Llano on August 15, 1911, was

In heaven, where they know what is really important, they marvel that we make such a fuss about the atom bomb and are so little excited about our Lady’s coming to Fatima

The Secret and the Church - Vol. II of The Whole Truth About Fatima Frére Michel de la Sainte Trinitè


Volume three details the ex-tensive history of Sr. Lucy and her ongoing revelations and the writing down of the 3rd part of the Secret and how the

refusal of the Popes to either reveal it or to fully comply with Our Lady’s requests have affected the world.

The Holy Mountain of LaSaletteThe Most Reverend William Ullathorne


It was only eight years after our Sorrowful Mother ap-peared to the shepherd chil-dren in the south of France, that Bishop Ullathorne took

up his pen to defend the authenticity of the visitation.

Our Lady of Guadalupe and the Conquest of DarknessWarren H. Carroll


In the late fifteenth century, Satan reigned in all his un-mitigated cruelty in the very heart of what was to be the Americas. Only thirty some

years later, the Queen of Heaven crushed his head, taking away his bloody government, and establishing in perpetuity the merciful reign of her very maternal and Immaculate Heart.

Sister Elizabeth of the TrinityCanonized on October 16th, 2016 St. Elizabeth is our newest Carmelite saint. Following a radiantly happy period as a postu-lant and notwithstanding one year of a rather difficult novitiate, she took her vows on the 11th of January 1903. She was now the “bride of Christ”! She would nurture on the Word of God, especially St. Paul, who would invite her to become “A Praise of Glory” for God, a “God who loves us so much.” These writings of hers will have a great impact on souls in the 21st century!


the praise of glory

E. E. Y. HalesPio Nono


Even though the duration of his papal reign has since been eclipsed by that of Pope John Paul II, at the time of his death in 1878 Pope Pius IX had served as pope longer than any pope besides Saint

Peter. His papacy, from 1846 until 1878, was the political and religious pivot-point of the nineteenth century.



Garnering his material from the last two of the four Books of Kings, Father Charles Gar-side, M.A., paints a portrait of a thundering visionary,

who lights up the Old Testament perhaps more brilliantly than any other Biblical figure.

Saint Cecilia Saint Francis of Assisi, 13th Century

The Rulers of Russia

Dom Prosper Guéranger


It was righteous indignation that moved Abbot Dom Guéranger to defend the cause of Saint Cecilia, whose holy celebrity had spanned fifteen centuries and was under attack by liberal

revisionist historians. The abbot’s strategy was to validate the traditional accounts of all the martyrs’ lives by exonerating just one.

Sister Lucia: Apostle of Mary’s Immaculate HeartMark Fellows

Doña Emilia Pardo Bazan


For those who are interested in factual knowledge of the Fatima and Tuy apparitions, the life of Sr. Lucy, of the importance of the Rosary, of

the need to consecrate Russia, and to reveal the Third Secret, you will find the answers in this book.


Aptly titled, this author provides the reader with a deeply spiritual and radically historical framework in which she illumines the uniqueness of this soul and the depths

of the effects upon the world produced by the sanctity of this one human being who cooper-ated so magnanimously with the ever present grace of God.

Spanish Roots of AmericaBishop David Arias


This is an American history book written from the Span-ish perspective. From Virginia to California and every state south of them were evange-lized, settled, and defended by

Spain—until the protestant English began their war of conquest and extermination against the Catholics of America.

The Rulers of Russia and the Russian FarmersRev. Denis Fahey, C.S.Sp.


This is the second book Father Fahey wrote exposing Com-munism as it was actually practised in Russia. The first book, The Rulers of Russia

was published ten years earlier and was widely appreciated for its exposure of the truth about those who brought about the ‘birth’ of Com-munism.

Rev. Denis Fahey, C.S.Sp.


“I repeatedly promised Saint Peter that if I ever got the chance, I would teach the truth about his Master in the way he and his successors, the Roman Pontiffs, wanted it done. That is what I have

striven to do and am doing.” — Fr. Denis Fahey

The Prophet of Carmel - The Life and Mission of the Prophet EliasRev. Charles B. Garside, M.A.


RichelieuHilaire Belloc


This gripping tale, unfolding at the heart of the European story, is a candid look at Richelieu’s uncanny states-manship and undoubted sincerity, and the unintended but disastrous effect of these

upon the soul of Western civilization.

The Papal MonarchyDom Prosper Guéranger


This stirring and scholarly defense of the papacy was instrumental in producing, at Vatican I, the definitions of the infallibility and perpetuity of the Petrine office. Pius IX (Pio Nono) thanked Guérang-

Roberto de MatteiNo event of the 20th century produced a greater effect upon the Catholic Church than Vatican II. To many it might seem to have been simply a meeting of important churchmen gathered to discuss church matters, but because the Catholic Church is the only church founded on this earth by God himself to guide men to salvation, the reality is that centuries from now, historians will likely consider it as one of the two pivotal events of world history for the recently ended century.

Why Jews Become Catholics

Breaking with the Past

Rosalie Marie Levy

Francis Aidan Gasquet, O.S.B.



Through two thousand years, almost miraculously, there has been a steady stream of Jews crossing the threshold of the Church...at personal sacrifice...resulting in divorce

from family and friends. This pull toward Christ can only be attributed to the work of the Holy Spirit. Here are some of their stories.

The Right Rev. Francis Aidan Gasquet, Abbot-General of the English Benedictines and Chairman of the Commission appointed for the revision of the Vulgate or Latin Bible, gave a course of sermons at

the High Mass in St. Patrick’s Cathedral on the Sundays of Advent, 1913, on “Catholic Princi-ples Abandoned at the Reformation”.

William CobbettG. K. Chesterton


The great founder of English and American political jour-nalism is here described and lauded by G. K. Chesterton, and for us, one of the great English heroes of the 19th century is brought to life for

our admiration and instruction in the 21st century.

Warren H. Carroll


Since the earliest days of the Church, there has been no date more crucial to universal Christendom than the year 1917. We are still living the horror of the aftermath of the

Communist rebellion; and, on the other hand, we are still living under the hope, yet to be fulfilled, of Our Lady of Fatima’s promises.

The War in La Vendée and the Little ChouannerieGeorge J. Hill, M.A.


This is the thrilling story of the sucessful peasant rebellion in the northwest of France that fought the satanic forces of the French Revolution to

a standstill in defense of their Faith and their homes! Highly recommended reading for adults and especially for boys age 14 and up.

The White and the GoldThomas B. Costain

Father Clement Raab, O.F.M.


The White and the Gold was one of his best works and is not a novel, but rather a his-tory of the founding of New France from its discovery in 1497 until the early 1700s

when the war with England for the domination of New France began in earnest.

The Twenty Ecumenical Councils


This brief and positive sketch of the twenty great events in history, so vibrant with life and so far-reaching in their consequences, will afford the reader, we trust, a very defi-

nite and appreciable knowledge of the nature and history of Holy Mother Church.

Why Apologize for the Spanish Inquisition?

Softcover • 32 Pages • $5.95(Spanish) Softcover • 33 Pages • $5.95

Astounding enough, in 1994 the British Broadcasting Company came out with an unbiased documentary enti-tled: The Myth of the Spanish Inquisition. The admissions, coming across the air waves of

this apostate nation, astounded viewers, and the priests from Miles Jesu make good use of them in their monogram

Swords Around the Cross - The Nine Years WarTimothy T. O’Donnell


This is the story of the Catho-lic uprising of Hugh O’Don-nell, Red Hugh, his valiant son, and Hugh O’Neill, Earl of Tyrone. Beginning in 1595, the war for liberty and

the reign of Christ the King grew in strength, victory by victory, such wise that by 1599 all of Ireland was ruled by native Irishmen as an independent Catholic Kingdom.

Ten Dates Every Catholic Should KnowDiane Moczar


Here are the saints and sinners, popes and kings that God used to shape his Church and change the world. You’ll meet Clovis and Charlemagne, Luther and

Pope Leo, Suleiman and St. Francis, the Arians, the Franks, the Huguenots, and others whose sins or sacrifices altered the course of history.

The Iron Man of China

Windows into the Lifeof a Priest

Dr. Paul Lavin & Robert Lavin

Rev. Robert A. Lange



This is the biography of Fr. Joseph Lavin, an American Maryknoll priest who was dubbed “the Iron Man of China” by a famous American reporter. This is a wonderful life of a heroic American im-

prisoned and tortured by the Communists who was ultimately expelled from China.

He is a priest forever! Father Lange’s fascinating account of his lifelong path to the priesthood and his experience of grace is intensely personal, and yet he accomplishes his

purpose of reminding us about universal truths and the possibility of a permanent, loving rela-tionship with God.

A Miscellaney of Men

BelindaHilaire Belloc


This brief novel of human love and affection idealized is a delightful and cheerful reminder that indeed, life can have its moments of beauty, if even only as a foretaste of the delights promised to

those blessed with the grace of perseverance unto salvation.

Catholic Tales for Boys and GirlsCaryll Houselander

Dom Alban Fruth, O.S.B.


Tale after tale introduces children to the tender love that Jesus has for each of them, and to the fire of love for Him that can burn in the heart of Catholics – even in

the hearts of little ones like themselves.

Boy Heroes


Do you want to know how to make the Heart of Jesus glad? Then listen to the stories about Tonio Martinez and Andrew de Thaye. They made their lives a song of love for both Jesus and His Blessed

Mother, Mary. From their lives you too can learn how to please and love Jesus. Ages 7 - 14.

More Catholic Tales for Boys and GirlsCaryll Houselander


Here are stories of princes and gypsies, bishops and bears, tales of Catholic boys and girls that remind us that especially in young souls the faith is quite strong, and evil

is never a match for goodness.

The Ballad and the MessageBro. Charles Madden, OFM


Just like the Four Green Fields of the famous Ballad, the articles originally published in Immaculata Magazine, com-prising this book are arrayed like glittering gems in four

sections entitled’ Our Lady, The Saints, Church History, and Christian Living.

Battle for Oscar SixStaff Sergeant Eugene DeLalla


The Battle for Oscar Six takes place at Tuy Hoa air base in the II Corps theater of the war, but it could have been at any air base, and the men depicted here who fought that skirmish could have been any of the

hundreds of thousands of Catholic American boys who gave their youth, their blood, and oftentimes their lives in the “The Vietnam War.”


The volume includes 39 brief sketches of individuals, each one of whom illustrates an aspect of contemporary society. Social, historical, and religious thought all figure prominently in this

book, making it of great use in any study of the literary, religious, and social aspects of early 20th-century England and Europe.

A Life of Our Lord for ChildrenMarigold Hunt

G. K. Chesterton


Dear Children: The Gospels are four very short books that tell you about our Lord’s life. You can read them quite fast. The reason the same story takes so much longer to

tell in this book is that the men who wrote the Gospels just went straight on and hardly even stopped to explain anything.

Hilaire BellocThis book was written when Belloc was fifty-five years old, and it is a perfect introduction to the man and his mind. It is a set of mature reflections on sailing the sea, on life, and on all things universal and Catholic. He had lived courageously in the first half of the 20th century, when all the world was changing irre-vocably, and the events of the era were now well-assessed in his maturity. This book is a personal favorite of Loreto’s editor


the cruise of the “nona”

Born in Norfolk Virginia of an Irish Catholic family from Coun-ty Limerick, Fr. Ryan is known not only as a mystic poet of the Catholic religion but also as the Poet Laureate of the Confed-eracy. He was the most popular and most quoted and recited poet of his generation in the South and in the North. His beautiful and timeless poetry has for too long been unknown to most Americans - Catholic or not.
