Jesus told us to be perfect, and the Second Vatican Council highlighted this command by speaking of the universal call to holiness for all Christians. How do we answer this call? One great way is to learn from and pray with the saints, the ordinary men and women who fought the good fight to be holy until the end of their lives – and won.

The saints have inspired Christians for more than two thousand years because they show us what it looks like to follow Jesus Christ despite countless challenges and obstacles. This unique book contains short biographies of several saints, along with prayers to each one, for every day of the year. It also provides definitions of Church terms and other helpful back - ground information.

The saints in this collection come from every period of Church history and all walks of life. They represent numerous countries, cultures, age groups, and vocations. They show us that holiness truly is a path open to anyone, and by their example and prayers they help us to follow it.

“These men teach us how to grow as Christians by walking the way of the Cross. The Cross is as close to us as the limitations of our own humanity. The Cross is woven into all our relationships. Drawing closer to God is infinitely rewarding but also terribly hard, and demands everything from us. Living in community fortifies our identity and sustains our purpose, but it also confronts us with the whole range of human weakness, starting with our own. St. Anthony was left to battle wild beasts, feeling that God had abandoned him. St. Benedict was nearly poisoned twice by men who should have been his closest friends and collaborators. The wisdom that is enshrined in these monastic rules was hard-won and continues to speak to all of us who are trying to be faithful followers of Christ!”

–Fr. Boniface Hicks, OSB

The powerful witness of the Church’s early saints gives guidance on striving for heaven to all the faithful.

A beautiful compilation of influential and inspiring works by saints and doctors of the Church, these classic yet relevant texts were written by the early monastic fathers:

• St. Benedict of Nursia
• St. Gregory the Great
• St. Basil the Great
• St. Athanasius

Saints of the First Monasteries is a book about saints, written by saints who have had a great impact on the Church. It contains four unabridged, foundational texts:

• The Life of St. Anthony written by St. Athanasius
• The Greater Rule of Our Holy Father Basil, Archbishop of Caesarea by St. Basil the Great
• The Life and Miracles of St. Benedict by St. Gregory the Great
• The Rule of St. Benedict by St. Benedict of Nursia

Through these writings, gain deeper insight on subjects like:

• embracing Christ and the Cross
• living a communal life
• revitalizing and renewing the Church and your own heart

This timeless Catholic Classics edition of Saints of the First Monasteries also includes:

• An introduction and commentary by Fr. Boniface Hicks, OSB, Rev. Dr. Christiaan Kappes, and Jerome C. Foss, PhD
• A full-color image of St. Benedict from Ascension’s Sacred Art Collection of Holy Men and Women by Tianna Williams
• A leatherlike cover, foil stamping, and a place-holding ribbon

Classic and beautiful, this book draws all Catholics into a deeper relationship with God in their pursuit of holiness through the honest, authentic wisdom from some of the Church’s greatest saints.

Far-reaching changes continue to take place in the American priesthood. Building on insights gained from four previous surveys, Same Call, Different Men uses fresh data from a 2009 survey-jointly implemented by the National Federation of Priest's Councils and the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate-in which 900 priests shared attitudes and stories about their lives and ministry. Among topics covered are the challenges of ministry with fewer ordinations and larger parishes, ministering to an increasingly multicultural laity, collaboration with lay leaders, and personal reflections on the sexual abuse issue. It also relates the many satisfactions of being a priest, one who brings Christ to others and who is invited into many profound moments of individual lives.
