Archbishop Burke Recommends ‘Stories of Saints’

This new line of comic books was reported on here this past March, and looked to be an excellent means of teaching others about the Saints.

Stories of the Saints," a monthly four-packet comic book series on Catholic saints, has a new fan.

Archbishop Raymond L. Burke is recommending the series to catechists at parishes and schools in the archdiocese.

In a recent letter to priests, school administrators and directors of religious education, Archbishop Burke wrote, "I can tell you very honestly that the booklets are beautifully done, are true to the lives of the saints and are inspiring." He called the "Stories of the Saints" a "vital resource in the Catholic education and formation of our children and young people."

The booklets are published monthly by Arcadius Press of Springfield, Mo. The publishers offer opportunities for group fund-raising. For more information, access www.arcadiuspress.com or call (417) 887-6570.
