“I pray that the stories of these great men and women and how they were transformed and sustained by the sacraments will rouse us to become saints ourselves in our day and age.” —from the Foreword by Father John Riccardo

Witness the power of the seven sacraments through dramatic retellings of fourteen pivotal moments of grace in the lives of the saints. These well-researched, novelized stories will inspire you to welcome God's grace into your life and live your faith more boldly. Featuring saints from around the world and supplemental materials for group study, Stories of Saints and Sacraments is a celebration of the universal call to holiness, making it ideal for personal spiritual reading, book clubs, and faith formation programs. Each story includes a personal challenge for the reader, a prayer, key facts and historical context, and quotes from the saints, plus a reader’s guide and suggested Scripture and catechetical readings for further study.
