The Writings of St. Louis Marie De Montfort
$39.95
Fr.
de Montfort was a tireless preacher of the reign of Jesus through
Mary who put at the service of his mission all of the richness of his
wide-ranging talents as an artist, a writer, a poet, a theologian and
a sculptor. He identified himself so closely with the plight of the
poor, the forgotten and the cast aside that he was received by them
as one of their own. Finding in the Cross of the Savior a treasure of
inestimable value, he did not flee from suffering, nor from sorrow or
sacrifice, as he understood that nothing so fully unites one with the
Lord than the Cross of the rigors of faithful discipleship borne
faithfully, lovingly and even joyfully. The key to this ardent and
fruitful apostolic life was his surrender of himself into the
maternal care of Mary, the great Mother of God. This great secret,
the secret of Mary, the secret that leads one to intimate communion
with Jesus Christ, the eternal and incarnate Wisdom of God, is the
treasure he longs to impart through his writings and there is not a
word that he has written which does not hold some aspect of that
great treasure within it.
This
book, then, is a treasury - a treasury of life, of wisdom and of
grace. It is such a treasury because its author, St. Louis de
Montfort, is one who has been privileged to receive from Our Lady a
sharing in the great Treasury that is stored up in her holy and
immaculate heart, and it is from this great Treasury that we are
given a sharing in and through the writings of the Good Father from
Montfort.
