Blessed Father Solanus Casey, O.F.M. Cap.: Porter for Souls
Blessed Father Solanus Casey, O.F.M. Cap.
Blessed Father Solanus Casey, O.F.M. Cap. was a humble Capuchin priest who dedicated his life to serving others. Visitors to this website can stay informed on his sainthood progress, share personal testimonies, memories, and anecdotes, as well as report favors granted through his intercession.
This little book costs $15.95, and can be purchased at Amazon.com, LambingPress.com, and CatholicBooksDirect.com. Search by typing Memorable Graces on any of the above websites. Proceeds benefit two charities: The Open Door, a food delivery ministry in Huntington, Indiana (where Blessed Solanus lived at St. Felix Friary in so-called retirement from 1946 to 1956); and the St. Bonaventure Soup Kitchen in Detroit, Michigan where, with his fellow Capuchins, he regularly served hot meals to all in need.
"Thank God ahead of time!"
Authors seek memories, anecdotes, and favors granted through Blessed Father Solanus Casey’s intercession for second book
Perhaps you personally knew Blessed Solanus Casey or know someone who did. Perhaps you or someone you know received a life-changing favor through his intercession. Maybe you, a relative, or a friend have a fond memory or anecdote to share. If so, we the authors (Richard G. Beemer and Linda Leist) want to publish your stories to include in a sequel to our
first book, “Memorable Graces.”
Published by Lambing Press, “Memorable Graces” tells the stories of faith-filled people who have been blessed by him in some way. The majority of those stories have not been shared with a wider audience, but with the publication of the first volume of “Memorable Graces” we have, in fact, broadened the audience, which we hope to expand upon even more with the publication of a second volume, and this is your opportunity to contribute to it.
Please either type your story or print it clearly on lined paper by hand. Also, if you wish, include a hard-copy photo of yourself for us to print with your story. Do not email your photo; our experience has been that most emailed photos do not have the high resolution needed for us to reproduce it. If you wish for the photo to be returned, include a self-addressed stamped envelope. Mail your photo (and story too if you do not use a computer) to Richard G. Beemer, 997N-300W, Huntington, IN 46750.
If you wish to email your story but send your photo separately in the mail, please email your story to richardbeemer8@gmail.com. Or, if you prefer to dictate your story over the phone, call Linda Leist at 260-224-5602. You will then be emailed or sent by mail a permission form to sign, which clears the way for us to print your story and photo. The permission form is required by the publisher, and the stories become the property of the publisher.
Please keep in mind that all proceeds from the book will be donated to Catholic ministries that provide food for those in need. The authors are not compensated in any way, which is what Blessed Solanus would want, and expect! You can also order the current first volume of “Memorable Graces” on amazon.com, lambingpress.com, or catholicbooksdirect.com; just search for Memorable Graces. The book costs $15.95.
God bless the Father Solanus Guild for its generous offer to allow us to promote our Solanus books on its website.
