This story is about a Polish nurse, Hanna Chrzanowska (1902 -1973), a catholic woman who established and coordinated Parish Nursing in communist Poland in the late 1950's. It is to her credit that the house-bound and infirm cried with joy and for the first time in years experienced hope and faith in a better future. She worked for most of her professional life as a qualified nursing instructor in the field of community nursing, in several schools of nursing in Poland. There are many wonderful holy women and some of them, in answering the call to follow Christ, manage to do amazing things. Their heroic Christian lives witness to the power and glory of the risen Lord, spreading love and joy whenever and wherever their story is retold. This is the story about one such woman, who went about her ordinary professional tasks as a nurse, in a most extra-ordinary Christ-centred way.Hanna is one of the first candidates for sainthood who was also a registered nurse. It is hoped that shortly we will be able to formally count her among the many saints known for their works of mercy and their care for the sick and abandoned; it is hoped that she will become a modern Christian patron and model for today's generation of nurses and healthcare workersShe was a great Polish patriot and during the Second World War, her tireless work in Kraków with the homeless and refugees, significantly contributed to the avoidance of mass hunger and outright starvation in the over-crowded city. She was also a long-time editor of the Polish nursing journal, an accomplished novelist and professional writer - having published several books, poems and articles.

Carlo Acutis, born May 3, 1991, fully embraced the gift of life. Known as a computer whiz, he also liked to play soccer, video games, and the saxophone. He enjoyed watching his favorite police dramas and making short films with his star cast of cats and dogs. He had many friends and enjoyed spending time with them. Yet Carlo was a little “different” at school, in the pizzerias, and on the soccer field. What set Carlo apart was his constant pursuit of holiness. In addition to his fun hobbies, he spent time teaching catechism classes and serving in soup kitchens. Carlo loved to attend daily Mass and frequent Eucharistic adoration. The Word of God and the Eucharist were the center of his life. Carlo’s unwavering devotion to the Eucharist inspired him to tell the story of Eucharistic miracles through a website he created just for fun. He wanted to deepen his own knowledge of these phenomena, to strengthen his devotion to Jesus, and to invite others to grow in love for the Eucharist. The website subsequently caught the attention of people across the globe, introducing countless people to Eucharistic miracles. Carlo died from a sudden and violent illness in 2006 at the age of fifteen. In less than a decade, his story spread across Italy and around the world. After Pope Francis declared him venerable in 2018, his beatification was celebrated in Assisi on October 10, 2020. The next step will be canonization, making him the first millennial saint.

In 2019, Peter Kreeft published Socrates'' Children, a four-volume series on the hundred greatest philosophers of all time, spanning from ancient Greece to contemporary Germany. But he made a terrible mistake: he somehow left out women, and with this, he overlooked the greatest mind of them all. He forgot her—a mysterious housewife from a desert village—because he had forgotten what "philosophy" means. "Philosophy is not the cultivation of cleverness," Kreeft explains, "or the sophistications of scholarship, or the analysis of analysis, or the refutation of refutations, or the deconstruction of deconstructions." No, "philosophy is a romance, a love affair—the love of wisdom." This book is a one-of-a-kind study on Mary of Nazareth, the mother of Jesus. If Jesus Christ is wisdom incarnate, and if Mary loved Him more than anyone else ever did, then it holds that Mary is the greatest philosopher, the greatest wisdom-lover. With precision and humor, Kreeft not only unpacks the thought and spirit of Mary as we know her through Scripture and Church doctrine, but offers a heartfelt crash course in the basics of philosophy—methodology, epistemology, logic, metaphysics, cosmology, ethics, politics, aesthetics, and more—all through the lens of the Mother of God. Fans of Kreeft will find here another fine example of his characteristic freshness, creativity, depth, and readability. But above all, those who are curious about the mother of Jesus, whether they are new to Christian faith or simply hoping to discover it anew, will likely find themselves swept up in the tide of Mary''s wise love for God.
