Description

Gerard Majella’s name is familiar to many Catholics. They have relied on his prayers at difficult times, especially while trying to conceive a baby, to bring it to full term, and when faced with the great life-giving mysteries of labour and birth. Many carry his name through life. But sometimes those who pray through Gerard’s intercession know relatively little about him.

This book by Redemptorist Fr Brendan McConvery C.Ss.R. is an introduction to Gerard’s life, especially for those who might not be familiar with it. The text and images offer an insight into the reality of Gerard’s world, allowing the reader to see the places he would have known, some of the objects he might have seen, and some of the people who were part of his story. This book is also an invitation to pray with Gerard.

Free bookmark prayer card included.
