Description
Saints are not phenomena of the past; they are with us in all eras of the Church's life, for God does not leave His Church bereft of holy witnesses. In this second volume of Modern Saints: Their Lives and Faces, Ann Ball provides brief but substantive biographies on 45 saints, blessed, and other holy men and women from the past two centuries. Included for each is a portrait, typically an actual photograph a true blessing for Catholics of our time.
