Overview

An Invitation from St. Francis de Sales

Images of travel and voyages abound in the writings of St. Francis de Sales who encouragingly and alluringly invites those seeking his guidance to travel the road that Jesus himself has so graciously and courageously opened up for us. This he has done by his life, death and resurrection, thereby giving us access to God. It is St. Francis de Sales�s thought and ideas that are paraphrased and adapted here to present an enticing invitation to make this Lenten journey in his company and in that of Our Lord.

� from A Lenten Journey with Jesus Christ and St. Francis de Sales

Inside you will find a short biography of St. Francis de Sales, A Brief History of the Oblates of St. Francis de Sales, St. Francis de Sales on Prayer, a description of the Salesian Spirit, and more, along with daily readings and prayers for every day of Lent, weekdays and Sundays.
