Anima Christi
Mother Mary Francis, P.C.C.
These meditations on the famous prayer of St. Ignatius by a Poor Clare nun and well-regarded spiritual writer will help every reader deepen his prayer life and draw closer to the Person of Christ. Popes, saints, and common folk have made this their daily prayer for centuries. Let the Abbess of cloistered nuns help you reflect deeper on the profound thoughts of this prayer that are needed to shape a devout life in Christ.
Beneath the surface verbal expressions of this familiar prayer lie depths of meaning for which each unfolding petition prepares the next until arrival at the final all-comprehensive plea that God should call us to Himself and admit us into the eternal choir singing His praises. The unending joyous cry of the blessed taught by the ageless cry of the angels: Holy! Holy! Holy! is rehearsed on earth in the haunting reaches of this so simple and so profound prayer: "Anima Christi".
"How
illuminating are her meditations on the meaning of suffering and an expression
of love; how convincingly she shows that it opens one's heart to others by choking
our selfishness. Anyone reading this beautiful book will pray the Anima Christi
with deepened understanding and renewed fervor."
—Alice von Hildebrand, Author, Soul of a Lion
"As
an Abbess of Poor Clare Nuns, Mother Mary Francis has for many decades been

build their lives on Him."
