SERMONS ON PRAYER

 

These priceless sermons given by St. Francis de Sales in 1615 were diligently copied down by two nuns, both of whom had been blessed with excellent memories.  They gathered up the saint’s words like precious manna.  However, the sermons were not translated into English until centuries later, in our own decade, and in this book they are available to us for the very first time.
