The saints, the heroes of the Roman Catholic faith, lived lives of holiness, dedicated to serving God. The saints lived at different times in different places throughout history, but they all shared a love of God that has been documented through the teachings of the Church. Today, the saints serve as examples for all Catholics, showing the believers how to lead a more spiritual life. Catholic devotions are particular customs, rituals and practices of worship or in honour of the saints that are in addition to the liturgy of the Catholic Church.

Catholic and Protestant believers alike should find great insight into the the deeper things of walking with Christ, while partaking in this book.

These pamphlets were compiled into this book, which remains one of the best sources for defending the Catholic faith.
