Great Magdalens

Biographies & Memoirs

Community & Culture

<p>Here are over 20 true stories of women who had been guilty of adultery, murder, fornication and abortion, plus engaged in hatred, envy, lying and other sins -- yet found forgiveness, mercy, healing and peace through Our Lord Jesus Christ. These women were as passionate in atonement as they had formerly been in sin. Some had been rejected by their partners in sin; others had to make a supreme effort and tear themselves away. Some had children. Some were punished by civil law. Some had to turn their backs on riches. Some had to disentangle themselves from political relationships. But all converted and spent the rest of their lives doing penance -- a pattern that will be repeated till the End of Time by many other Great Magdalens. 364 Pp. PB. Impr.</p>

<p>"One of the greatest glories of the Church is her noble womanhood. And to-day especially, when the world is in many different ways is seeking to turn our women from the pursuit of the Christian ideal in wifehood and motherhood, there is need surely of recalling the inspiriting stories of these women who sought first of all for the kingdom of God." - From the author's preface. Nearly 400 pages full of inspiring biographies of Catholic wives and mothers from throughout history. Tales are herein told of Catholic wives and mothers who were queens, writers, teachers, poets, founders of religious houses, hospitals and orphanages and those who followed all manner of vocations from the earliest times of the Church. In every department the wife and mother has been chosen by God to help in His work, and here Msgr.
