25.01.2022 LIFE TO THE FULL: STORIES OF INFERTILITY, FAITH AND A HOPE-FILLED FUTURE Life to the Full: Stories of Infertility, Faith and a Hope-Filled Future Available at stpauls.com.au By Vermeer, Debra (Author)... $24.95 AUD Life to the Full tells the stories of seven couples, including the author and her husband, who have walked their own path through infertility. Through the voice of the women involved, these couples bravely and honestly share their intimate struggles and joys and allow us in as they ask deep questions of themselves and God. It is a book of struggle, but overwhelmingly, a book of hope, as each couple opens themselves to God’s will in their life, finding not only a measure of peace in their infertility, but also new callings and new dreams that have given rise to surprising fruitfulness. ‘I heartily commend this book not only to those travelling the road of uncooperative fertility but also those in parish ministry or with loved ones on that journey it will open many big-hearted conversations and transform the way we approach infertility in our communities.’ Francine Pirola, Director, Marriage Resource Centre, Sydney NSW Debra Vermeer is a freelance journalist working predominantly in the Catholic media. She is married, with two adult step-children.

22.01.2022 A DAILY CUPPA WITH MARY AND JULIAN A Daily Cuppa with Mary and Julian Meditations with St Mary MacKillop and Fr Julian Tenison Woods... By Kane, Sue; Kane, Leo (Author) $24.95 AUD We long for those little pauses in the day, perhaps over a cuppa, that allow our souls to catch up with the rest of our lives. A Daily Cuppa with Mary and Julian is designed to accompany us in such moments. The meditations can be followed according to the calendar, or dipped into randomly. They draw inspiration and encouragement from the insights and wisdom of St Mary MacKillop, our first Australian canonised saint, and Father Julian Tenison Woods, two wonderful people who co-founded the Sisters of St Joseph, and whose writings continue to resonate in the hearts of people today. After long careers in Catholic education, Sue and Leo Kane continue to find inspiration in the spiritual legacy of Mary and Julian. These days they revel in the company of four beautiful grandchildren, who help them to release the child within, and remain grounded in the everyday. There is always room in their lives for a cuppa.

21.01.2022 THE VIRTUES OF SAINT MARY OF THE CROSS: MARY MACKILLOP 1842-1909 The Virtues of Saint Mary of the Cross: Mary MacKillop 1842-1909 By Gardiner SJ, Paul (Author) $14.95 AUD ...

19.01.2022 WITNESSES TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH: NEW TESTAMENT REFLECTIONS ON MISSION Witnesses to the Ends of the Earth: New Testament Reflections on Mission By Moloney, Francis J. (Author) $24.95 AUD ... Eminent biblical scholar, Francis J. Moloney SDB, explores the teaching on mission found in the letters of St Paul, in the Gospels of Mark and Matthew, in Luke-Acts, and in the Gospel of John, showing how each of the inspired authors provides unique yet complimentary insights into the mission entrusted to the followers of Jesus a mission ad intra (to the community) and ad gentes (to the wider world). While acknowledging the primacy of the missionary vocation of Jesus of Nazareth, Moloney’s focus in this work is on those disciples who appear in the New Testament texts, and the myriad of further Christian disciples who have been inspired by them through the centuries. He concludes with a study of the celebration of the Eucharist as the heart of the Christian mission: As often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes (1 Cor 11:26). Francis J. Moloney SDB, AM, FAHA, holds the degrees of STL, SSL, and D. Phil. (Oxon). He has taught widely in Europe, Israel, USA and Australia, and is the author of numerous books and articles. He served as the Foundation Professor of Theology at Australian Catholic University (1994-1999), the Professor of New Testament and Dean of the School of Theology and Religious Studies at the Catholic University of America (1999-2005), and Provincial Superior of the Salesians of Don Bosco in Australia and the Pacific (2006-2011). After further time at Australian Catholic University, he is currently a Senior Fellow at Catholic Theological College, in the University of Divinity, Melbourne, Australia.

16.01.2022 THE LILY AND THE LITTLE FLOWER The Lily and the Little Flower By Elkazzi; Fr Maroun (Author) $14.95 AUD ... In the nineteenth century, two beautiful flowers were planted and came to blossom in the Church’s spiritual garden, one in Lebanon and one in France. These flowers were St Rafqa El-Rayes, ‘the lily of Hemlaya’, and St Thérèse of Lisieux, ‘the little flower’. The autobiographies of these two women, as well as eyewitness accounts, lead us on a journey of discovery as we uncover the depths of each one’s life and spirituality, a journey that takes us through the social, cultural, political and ecclesiological contexts of Lebanon and France in the nineteenth century. Important spiritual lessons emerge from their experience that help us on our own journey with God. I commend Fr Maroun Elkazzi for this fascinating book and I recommend it to the reader in the hope that it will bring you closer to Jesus and help you on your path of holiness. + Antoine-Charbel Tarabay Maronite Bishop of Australia FR MAROUN ELKAZZI is a Maronite Catholic priest in the Eparchy of Saint Maroun, Australia. He was born in Jiyeh, Lebanon, and migrated to Australia in 1986. Fr Maroun was ordained a priest in 2005 and gained a Licence in Sacred Theology from the Catholic Institute of Sydney in 2015. Since then he has led many mission trips to the Philippines, Lebanon, Peru and India, working with the poorest of the poor.

14.01.2022 GOD IS YOUNG: POPE FRANCIS A Conversation By Francis, Pope (Author) $36.95 AUD ... Available @ www.stpauls.com.au [A] beautiful book of hope and inspiration . . . Pope Francis speaks frankly about problems facing the young and the elderly, Catholic and non-Catholic.Publishers Weekly (starred review) Pope Francis examines the role of millennials in the future of the Catholic Church in this urgent call to believers of all generations to work together to build a better world. Since his election in 2013, Pope Francis has reinvigorated the Catholic Church and become one of the most popular global leaders. Now, in this extraordinary interview with journalist Thomas Leoncini, His Holiness reminds Catholics of all ages that God is young; He is always new. God has energy, spontaneity, and the desire for changeyouthful qualities that can be rallied to fight the many problems facing the Catholic Church and the world at large. In this inspiring volume, published in English for the first time, Pope Francis’s solution to these challenges is simple: a revolution of tenderness that unites believers of all ages in a mission to remake the world. God is young! God is the Eternal One who has no time, but is able to renew and rejuvenate Himself and all things continually. The most distinctive attributes of the young are also His. He is young because He makes all things new and loves innovation; because He astonishes and loves astonishment; because He dreams and wants us to dream.Pope Francis Praise for God Is Young Enlightening . . . The interview is extremely wide-ranging. [Pope Francis’s] answers contemplate not only philosophy but such quotidian things as plastic surgery, pets, cell phones, consumerism, and more. The pope’s answers are generous in their length, some being even mini homilies. But all are thoughtful and thought-provoking, of interest and benefit to readers of all ages.Booklist (starred review)
