St. Julie is known as the
spiritual mother of Sr. Kathleen’s
community, which was founded in Coesfeld,
Germany and traces its spirit back to her
through the Notre Dame Sisters of
Amersfoort in Holland.
This book for middle-grade children introduces them to
St. Julie Billiart, the foundress of the Sisters of
Notre Dame of Namur. She lived during the times of the
French Revolution. Although paralyzed from childhood
until she was 56 years old, Julie managed to catechize,
reestablish the faith in people’s hearts, and start a
religious community. Her inspiring story of unflagging
love for the good God is relevant for today for many
reasons.

a prayer and a glossary.

This book tells the story of Agnes Bojaxhiu, famous for
her extraordinary love of the poor. Children in middle
grades will follow this modern-day heroine as she
answers God’s call over and over and focuses the eyes
of the world on the plight of the poor. Although a Nobel
Prize winner, Mother Teresa remained simple and was
acknowledged worldwide as a living saint. Today the
communities she founded continue her work. Only a few
years after her death Mother Teresa was declared
"blessed," a step on the way to being
canonized.

The artist researched
biblical times and worked the results into
her art. That is why in the pictures
people wear headbands, the sheep have fat
tails, and cats appear.
