Books on the Saints
We are so blessed in the Catholic Church to have such a "cloud of witnesses" to look to for guidance, intercession, and example. Reading stories about the saints is inspiring and reminds us that the most ordinary people can do extraordinary things when they surrender all to the Lord!
All ages can find a saint to look to and learn from in our collection!!
