Saint Alphonsus Liguori, founder of the Redemptorists, provides
programs of prayers and meditations for thirty-one visits to the
Blessed Sacrament. Each day he offers devotional and inspirational
material for eucharistic adoration, spiritual communion, and
prayer. At the end of each visit Alphonsus gives material for a
visit to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The saint also includes two
hymns. His book draws widely from the writings of the saints.
Alphonsus relinquished a career as a lawyer in order to respond to
his vocation to study for the priesthood. In Naples he worked
especially with the poor, and he established evening chapels for
young people in the city. While serving as bishop he wrote many
books and articles. Alphonsus was canonized by Pope Gregory XVI in
1839 and declared a Doctor of the Church in 1871.
