GRACIAS SENOR JESUS, POR ESE SACRIFICIO DE AMOR QUE HAS HECHO AL MORIR EN LA CRUZ PARA RECONCILIARNOS CON EL PADRE, GRACIAS SENOR JESUS. CIERTAMENTE NO HAY PALABRAS SUFICIENTES NI QUE LLENEN LA MAGNITUD DE GRATITUD QUE DEBERIAMOS TENER POR ESE SACRIFICIO DE AMOR QUE HAS HECHO POR NOSOTROS; POR ESO, DANOS LOS DONES DEL ESPIRITU SANTO PARA CONOCERTE, AMARTE Y ENTENDER TU PALABRA; Y ASI QUE A TRAVES DE LA DONACION DE ESOS DONES, PONIENDOLOS AL SERVICIO DEL PROJIMO, PODAMOS DEMOSTRARTE LA GRATITUD QUE MERECE TU GRAN AMOR. OH SENOR JESUS CON LA FUERZA DE TU AMOR, CONCEDENOS LA DICHA DE SER AGRADECIDOS CONTIGO PARA PODER ESTAR JUNTOS EN LA ETERNIDAD. AMEN

This account of the life of St. Ignatius, dictated by himself, is considered the most valuable record of the great Founder of the Society of Jesus. It gives an insight into the spiritual life of St. Ignatius detailing his conversion, his trials, the obstacles in his way, the heroism with which he accomplished his great mission. Few works in ascetical literature impart such a knowledge of the soul.

What Catholic social thought can teach thinkers of all faiths and backgrounds about equitable economics Inequality is skyrocketing. In a world of vast riches, millions of people live in extreme poverty, barely surviving from day to day. All over the world, the wealthy's increasing political power is biasing policy away from the public interest toward the financial interests of the rich. At the same time, many countries are facing financial fragility and diminished well-being. On top of it all, a global economy driven by fossil fuels has proven to be a collective act of self-sabotage with the poor on the front lines. A growing chorus of economists and politicians is demanding a new paradigm to create a global economy for the common good. In Cathonomics, Anthony M. Annett unites insights in economics with those from theology, philosophy, climate science, and psychology, exposing the failures of neoliberalism while offering us a new model rooted in the wisdom of Catholic social teaching and classical ethical traditions. Drawing from the work of Pope Leo XIII, Pope Francis, Thomas Aquinas, and Aristotle, Annett applies these teachings to discuss current economic challenges such as inequality, unemployment and underemployment, climate change, and the roles of business and finance. Cathonomics is an ethical and practical guide to readers of all faiths and backgrounds seeking to create a world economy that is more prosperous, inclusive, and sustainable for all.

The small town of Medjugorje, Bosnia-Herzegovina was a simple and unassuming farming community, unheard of to most people. But all that changed during the summer of 1981, and it has since been the meeting place of millions of pilgrims. In "Fingerprints of God," author "Stephen J. Malloy" chronicles the reported miracles and extraordinary supernatural activity that have occurred in Medjugorje since that time.

It all started when five teenagers and a ten-year old boy began to report in tandem that they were having heavenly visions. According to their witness, the Madonna, the Virgin Mary had begun appearing to them in order to call the world to an urgent conversion, reconciliation, and peace through Jesus Christ.

"Fingerprints of God" uniquely combines: the author's own experiences as a pilgrim to Medjugorje; a detailed description of the central messages given by the Virgin Mary, according to the six visionaries; stories about miraculous healings and extraordinary signs; the meaning of the ten secrets, concerning prophesied events to occur in Medjugorje and in the wider world; thorough examination of what the Catholic Church has said in its official capacity concerning the reported apparitions and related phenomena; positive assessments of renowned theologians; relationship made between the Medjugorje messages, Christian morality, and biblical revelation, especially the teachings of Jesus.

Celebrating thirty-one years of the Madonna's special presence, "Fingerprints of God" accounts that Medjugorje has been host now to more than twenty-eight million pilgrims from all over the world.
