With a Novena to the Holy Ghost and devotions for Mass, Holy
Communion, etc. THE use of this book is fourfold: 1. It serves for
short visits to Our Lord in the tabernacle. 2. It is designed to
sene still better for long visits to the Blessed Sacrament. By
means of it, half-hours and hours of adoration may be spent before
the Tabernacle in the most fruitful and interesting manner; hence
the sub-title has been affixed. It is indeed specially intended as
a vade mecum for those pious souls who, as members of Eucharistic
Leagues and Confraternities, are accustomed to keep the weekly or
monthly Hour of Adoration. 3. It tends to inculcate and to foster
devotion to the Holy Ghost, in connection with devotions to the
Holy Eucharist. 4. It is finally a Prayer-Book for all ordinary
occasions and devotions, especially for Mass and Holy Communion.
Our little book follows the suggestions of Pere Eymard-the
venerated and zealous Apostle of the Holy Eucharist- for making the
hour of adoration. The pious adorer is never permitted to lose
sight of the four ends of sacrifice or of the obligations we have
to God, as our almighty Creator and supreme Master, viz.: 1.
Adoration; 2. Thanksgiving; 3. Reparation; and 4. Prayer.
St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be sufficient to
cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947
at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our
lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals
' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately
spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters,
films, in a world of immodesty " We at St. Pius X Press are calling
for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic
books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers. This
book is a photographic reprint of the original. The original has
been inspected and some imperfections may remain. At Saint Pius X
Press our goal is to remain faithful to the original in both
photographic reproductions and in textual reproductions that are
reprinted. Photographic reproductions are given a page by page
inspection, whereas textual reproductions are proofread to correct
any errors in reproduction.
