Feast of ALL SAINTS DAY.............November 1


The Saints are the sinners who keep on trying.



The picture to the right is from the dust jacket of a book by my very good friend, Fr. Eugene Carrella. The book is titled PATRON SAINTS by Barbara Calamari and Sandra Dipasqua.

Fr. Gene's holy cards are
the source of all the saints pictured in the book.

There is another new book out featuring Fr. Gene's holy cards. It is by Thomas Craughwell and it titled "THIS SAINT'S FOR YOU."

    Dear Micki,

    thank you for this inspiring information. I would like very much to read those books! It is so wonderful and also necessary to read about the Saints and their lives to get to know them.


    With love in Christ,

    Ceci - I do hope you enjoy the books. I think like you, that reading is a great source for growing closer to those people who have gone before us and can teach us so much.

    Thanks for the tip! Authors Calamari and DiPasqua also wrote a beautifully-illustrated book called Visions of Mary, about everyone's favorite mother. :)

    Ginny - You bring a smile to my face. Why? Because you mentioned a book that features many holy cards from my collection. I was happy to be able to share several of my holy cards for this book.
