Prayerbooks

A vibrant prayer life unfolds when we regularly open ourselves to inspiration and God's grace. 2026: A Book of Grace-Filled Days provides a daily prayer experience to help us build and nurture our faith.

Beginning with the start of the church year in Advent 2025 and continuing through the 2026 calendar year, this daily devotional notes major feast days, saint commemorations, and holidays. Each page combines readings from the Scripture of the day with reflections to offer a few minutes of solace for quiet prayer and meditation. 2026: A Book of Grace-Filled Days is an accessible and insightful way to deepen our connection to God's loving presence and fill each day with a touch of grace.

Amid a wide range of spiritualities and charisms, the saints shared two consistent devotions: love for the Holy Eucharist and love for Our Lady. Here is the book that will immerse you deeply in both and inflame your heart with love for Jesus' Eucharistic Heart through the heart of His Mother. The relational reflections contained in this volume will restore or increase your faith in the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. They will help you enter into meditation with Jesus and Mary as never before and will open your heart to receive the graces available from the Sacred Mysteries.

Each Marian Eucharistic Visit presented in these pages, similar in format to Lectio Divina, guides you through four parts: ponder (a short prayer or quote from a saint or spiritual writer), reflect (a meditation on the grace you are seeking from your visit), pray (a guided reflection with traditional Marian Eucharistic prayers), and savor

Whether you have made prayer a habit already or this is your first prayer devotional, inspiration is waiting for you in the daily prayers written here. Ultimately, prayer is a conversation with God. You don't need to use fancy words or recite long passages of Scripture. Just talk to God. Open your heart to him.

Walk with St. Faustina through the year, guided by weekly meditations written by popular author and EWTN host Donna-Marie Cooper O'Boyle.

In this compelling and timely book, Flynn draws from Scripture, the teachings of the Church, and the Diary of St. Faustina to not only reveal the heart of Divine Mercy, but to offer you an invitation and a road map so that this mercy can transform your life.

Best-selling author Vinny Flynn continues his popular "7 Secrets" series with 7 Secrets of Divine Mercy, Second Edition, a book that brings him back to his roots. One of the original editors of the official English edition of the actual Diary of St. Faustina, Vinny has written and edited a vast number of the Divine Mercy materials that are used today.

Through his "secrets" of Divine Mercy, Vinny shows how Divine Mercy is not just another worthy "private devotion"; it is the key devotion, the umbrella devotion over everything else. Every other devotion in the Church, every ritual, every activity, every teaching is under that umbrella of Divine Mercy. It's all there to help us understand and enter into Divine Mercy. He shows us how everything in our lives can become more meaningful, more powerful, more life-changing once we really embrace the gift of Divine Mercy - the overflow of love from the Holy Trinity.

If you're not yet convinced of the impact Divine Mercy can have on your life, if you've never heard of this message and devotion, or if you're curious to learn more about it, this book is perfect for you. It shows us all how to respond to the call of Pope Francis "to live lives shaped by mercy."

Order copies today, for yourself, your family, and friends, and for anyone you know who can teach others about Divine Mercy: priests, deacons, Eucharistic ministers, CCD and RCIA teachers, youth ministers, etc.

Addressing the hard issue of suicide honestly and pastorally, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, draws from the teaching of the Church, the message of Divine Mercy, and his own experience of losing his grandmother to suicide in order to offer readers two key forms of hope. There's hope for the salvation of those who've died by their own hand, and there's hope for the healing of those whom they've left behind.

For six years, before becoming a well-regarded retreat master, Fr. Wayne Sattler lived as a diocesan hermit in a one-room cabin on an abandoned farmstead in rural North Dakota, striving to avail himself of the mystery of what God can do in prayer, clinging to the wisdom of the sixteenth-century Carmelite saints John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila as his trusted guides.

Fr. Sattler was asked many times to write a book sharing the fruits of his time in solitude to help others progress in the spiritual life, and after returning to the active diocesan priesthood in 2013, he completed this long-awaited work. Delving deeply into two of the greatest mystical masterpieces ever written, St. John's The Dark Night and St. Teresa's The Interior Castle, Father leads you through the intricate pathways of contemplative prayer, providing clarity on this oft-misunderstood subject.

What it may mean if you are nodding off during your meditation (You will be surprised!)

St. John of the Cross describes contemplation as "nothing else than a secret and peaceful and loving inflow of God, which, if not hampered, fires the soul in the spirit of love." This book sheds light upon the great mystery of the mystical life for everyone. Join Fr. Sattler as he guides you in developing the capacity for contemplative prayer in our great hope of being led more deeply into union with God.

Rich with doctrinal exactitude and a moving beauty of expression, the prayers and hymns of St. Thomas Aquinas have long been considered to be among the Church's greatest treasures.

Now you can bring these treasures into your own prayer life with The Aquinas Prayer Book -- the first complete English language collection of these stirring prayers.

This handy and beautiful leatherette volume brings you all of St. Thomas's known prayers and hymns in their Latin originals, along with new English translations. These translations render the originals with superb precision and a soul-fortifying eloquence that rivals St. Thomas's own masterly use of Latin.

A number of these prayers have never before been translated into English. Prayer and praise . . . for all times and occasions. These works are not meant just to be read, but to be prayed. After all, these are the prayers that St. Thomas himself used to bring radiant order to his own spiritual life -- upon rising, before setting to work, during periods of meditation, before Confession and Holy Communion, and even as he received the Last Rites. Their subjects are as varied as your own daily spiritual needs. Each one will deepen your faith, enlighten your understanding, and lift your heart to God.

Two respected Catholic men of letters collaborated to make this unique collection possible: Robert Anderson, an Aquinas expert and professor of philosophy, and Catholic poet Johann Moser, whose own poems have been acclaimed by Russell Kirk, Thomas Howard, Fr. George Rutler, and others.

Together, these men have produced a work remarkable for its accuracy, its beauty, and, above all, for its profound spirituality. Now you, too, can pray those prayers that helped make St. Thomas Aquinas one of the Church's most renowned and revered saints.

Before Study

Adoro Te Devote, Latens Deitas

To Acquire the Virtues

For Ordering a Life Wisely

For the Attainment of Heaven

Before and After Communion

For the Forgiveness of Sins

Augustine Day by Day 978-1-937913-48-9

Minute meditations for every day of the year, taken from the writings of Saint Augustine and complied and edited by John E. Rotelle, O.S.A. Each day includes a daily writing by St. Augustine, Bishop and Doctor of the Church and concludes with a prayer from the Saints. Illustrated and printed in two colors. Includes ribbon marker.
St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430 AD) is one of the most influential Christian theologians and philosophers. His writings have profoundly shaped Christian doctrine, Western philosophy, and the intellectual tradition of the Church. His works address deep questions on God, grace, free will, and the nature of good and evil, making them essential to theological study.
One of his most famous works, Confessions, is both a spiritual autobiography and a philosophical reflection on sin, grace, and conversion. In it, Augustine explores his journey from a life of worldly desires to his acceptance of Christian faith, showing the transformative power of God's mercy. His honesty and introspection make Confessions a timeless work that resonates with believers seeking a deeper relationship with God.
Another major work, The City of God, was written in response to the fall of Rome. It contrasts the earthly city, which is driven by human pride, with the City of God, which is built on faith and divine love. This book laid the foundation for Christian political thought and provided a framework for understanding history through a spiritual lens.
