Julia's Cats

Julia Child's Life in the Company of Cats

By: Patricia Barey,Therese Burson

“A cat-centric biography of Julia Child? Why not? . . . The many feline fanciers out there will surely enjoy the photographs of the cats.” —Chicago Tribune The world knows Julia Child as the charismatic woman who brought French cuisine to America and became a TV sensation, but there’s one aspect of her life that’s not so familiar. Soon after the Childs arrived in Paris in 1948, a French cat appeared on their doorstep, and Julia recalled, “Our domestic circle was completed.” Minette captured Julia’s heart, igniting a lifelong passion for cats equaled only by her love of food and her husband, Paul. All the cherished feline companions who shared Julia’s life—in Paris, Provence, and finally California—reminded her of that magical time in Paris when her life changed forever. From Julia’s and Paul’s letters and original interviews with those who knew her best, Patricia Barey and Therese Burson have gathered fresh stories and images that offer a delightfully intimate view of a beloved icon. “It’s clear that all the cats that passed through her life gave her joy and comfort, probably in ways that food and even Paul could not. Having that perspective of this grande dame makes her seem all the more human and wonderfully admirable to me.” —Epicurious “This compact, entertaining read is filled with personal photos and letters that document the role cats played in Julia’s life as she moved from Paris to Provence, Cambridge to California.” —Shelf Awareness “Brings this little known aspect of Julia Child’s life to light in an engaging and entertaining way.” —The Conscious Cat

The Prayers of Saint Therese of Lisieux: The Act of Oblation

By: St. Therese of Lisieux

Translated by Aletheia Kane, OCD Complete collection of Thérèse's independent prayers, translated from the critical edition, with 9 pages of photos. "For me," wrote Thérèse of Lisieux toward the end of her life, "prayer is an aspiration of the heart, it is a simple glance directed to heaven, it is a cry of gratitude and love in the midst of trial as well as joy; finally, it is something great, supernatural, which expands my soul and unites me to Jesus." Besides the countless spontaneous prayers found throughout her autobiography, letters, poetry, and plays, St. Thérèse left behind 21 additional independent prayers, from every period of her life, here collected for the first time. In this book we find prayers to the Infant Jesus and the Holy Face, prayers to Mary and the saints, prayers composed in joy and sorrow, prayers written for her novices and missionary brothers. All of them reflect the Saint's passionate love of God, which she wished to share with friends near and far. The highlight of this volume is the first critical text of Thérèse's famous "Offering to Merciful Love," fully annotated. Ample background materials explain the setting and significance of each prayer. Scholars will find here essential new information for the study of the Saint's doctrine; general readers will find this book an indispensible resource for learning to pray as Thérèse did. "It is prayer, it is sacrifice which give me all my strength; these are the invincible weapons Jesus has given me. They can touch souls much better than words.

The Poetry of St. Therese of Lisieux

Also included are a preface by Jean Guitton, a general introduction to Thérèse's spiritual and poetic development, 6 photos, and individual introductions to each of the poems, indicating its background and significance. The volume closes with the French text of the poems and a fully linked index to their major themes and images. Together with the ICS Publications editions of Thérèse of Lisieux's Story of a Soul, Last Conversations, Letters, Plays, and Prayers, this is an indispensible work for all those who love the life and spiritual message of "the greatest saint of modern times.

Poems of St. Therese, Carmelite of Lisieux

By: St Therese of Lisieux

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (1873 - 1897), also known as "The Little Flower of Jesus," was a French Carmelite nun. She is one of the most popular and influential Catholic Saints since apostolic times, together with St. Francis of Assisi. This collection of poems, translated by S.L. Emery, brings together St. Thérèse's love poems to Jesus, poems of praise and thankfulness, poems that reflect on Jesus' life on Earth as well as a set of poems in honor of Jeanne D'Arc. The poems speak of her desire to become more and more like Christ and Mary and, above all, to serve God.

Thoughts of the Servant of God Therese of the Child Jesus

By: Therese of the Child Jesus

St. Alphonsus writes: “a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery.” Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: “There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals!' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty!” We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers. This book is a photographic reprint of the original The original has been inspected and many imperfections in the existing copy have been corrected. At Saint Pius X Press our goal is to remain faithful to the original in both photographic reproductions and in textual reproductions that are reprinted. Photographic reproductions are given a page by page inspection, whereas textual reproductions are proofread to correct any errors in reproduction.

An Hour with Blessed Teresa of Calcutta

By: Anthony Chiffolo

Part of the "An Hour with..." pamphlet series, An Hour with Blessed Teresa of Calcutta will help you turn everything off for an hour, creating a time of reflection, recollection, learning, contemplation, and prayer. At 18, Agnes Bojaxhiu joined a religious order and left her native Albania. After a very short time, she was sent to India. Professing her permanent vows in 1937, she took the name Teresa. Becoming acutely aware of the poverty and suffering around her, Teresa permanently left the shelter of the convent walls to serve "the least of Jesus' bothers and sisters." Founder of the Missionaries of Charity, she is known the world over as Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Pamphlet This item is not returnable.
