THE DAY THAT CHANGED MY LIFE
When A Person Undergoes A Spiritual Conversion
Francis Fernandez
ISBN 978 971 554 215 9
337 pp, bookpaper, US$8.00
There was a moment in everyone’s life when he can say that it was at this time when it all began. As St. Paul would say—‘It was on the road to Damascus—when his life changed.’ For St. John the Apostle, he recalls that his life changed when, as a young man, he met Jesus when it was ‘almost four in the afternoon.’
For these two great saints and for all of us, everything changes when Jesus is made present in our lives. A profound conversion happens within every person when he meets Christ and decides to follow Him closely.
This book consists of short meditations which Fr. Fernandez (author of IN CONVERSATION WITH GOD 7-volume series) wrote during his inspired moments in prayer or at work on the meditations he was about to give. This book will also inspire its readers to turn a new leaf and bring a real conversion in their lives.

What the children see in their parents at home will be reflected in their lives. From the values and habits they practice and even the home’s decorating style, all these contribute to the child’s formation, seeping in by osmosis through the senses and into the soul.
This wonderful guidebook—now on its 2nd expanded edition—gives the parents a clear vision of their duties, which is to develop each child’s personality and not merely their clone. Inside each child is a PERSON waiting to be discovered, a hidden jewel with a special mission in life waiting to be fully revealed at the proper moment.
Fr Javier Abad and Eugenio Fenoy are the same authors of MARRIAGE A PATH TO SANCTITY, a popular book for couples who, after having read the book, attest to having saved or strengthened their marriage bonds.
QUESTION TIME
150 Questions and Answers on the
Catholic Faith
Fr. John Flader
ISBN
978 971 554 209 8
328 pp, bookpaper, US$8.00
Fr. Flader draws on more than 40 years of experience in handing on the faith to answer 150 questions on everything Catholic: doctrine, the sacraments, moral life, prayer and devotions.
The book is written in a balanced, easy-to-read style and contains a wealth of information that will be invaluable for anyone who is interested in finding out more about the Catholic faith. The answers were originally published in The Catholic Weekly (Sydney) and The Record (Perth, Australia).
“Fr. Flader’s Question Time is in the tradition of the apologetics of Fulton J. Sheen. He explains the Church’s teaching and practices in a straightforward way without any spin. The information is very up to date, including references to the works of Pope Benedict XVI. A great resource for handling on the faith.” (Tracey Rowland, Associate Professor of John Paul II Institute for Marriage & Family, Melbourne)
Fr. John Flader, BA (Harvard), DDL (University of Navarre, Spain), was ordained a priest of Opus Dei in 1967. He has served as chaplain of several universities in Australia and since 2002, Director of the Catholic Adult Educa-tion Centre for the Archdiocese of Sydney.
