Dolorous Passion
The book tells so much more about the Passion. It helps when praying the rosary or just meditating on the Passion because it broadens what you know about it and I feel brings you closer to God. I purchased books for our Church men’s group because I thought it was so important for them to know

A book that needs to be spread and reread
This is an Awesome, Marvelous and Beautiful book which contains the heart throbbing reality of Our Risen Lord’s Institution of the Eucharist, his arduous agony in Gethsemane, his arrest, his unjust trials, his Passionate scourging and maltreatment unto his road to Calvary with the carriage of the unbearable weight of the cross to be put to an ignominious death. Yet, by the Grace of God, Anne Catherine’s revelations do not end there. You read of Our Lord’s Omnipotent voice, and realize how he could have put an end to not only his arrest but also to all of enemies by just speaking!!! John 18:4-8 & Apocalypse19:15,22 Consequently, Our God is exceedingly Merciful, Forbearing and Just !!! Alleluia Alleluia Moreover you glimpse into Jesus descending into hell as soon as he dies, which he foretold in Matthew 12:40!!! One cannot deny these Divine revelations nor Praise God enough for allowing Anne Catherine to witness them firsthand and permit them to be recorded in printed form. FOR US TO READ!!! Truly a Holy book to be treasured and reread Every Lenten Season, especially during Holy Week!!! Don’t take my word for it, Come and See!!! John 1:39,46 12 out of 5 Star rating
