The Spiritual Friendship of Elena Guerra and Gemma Galgani
A spiritual friendship that defies all standards: Elena Guerra, Apostle of the Holy Spirit, and the fragile Gemma Galgani – two saints from Lucca, united in holy love for God.
Alongside Sacred Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, numerous encyclicals and Church documents, these texts will weave together the biographies of saints, their diaries and letters along a particular thread. Words that wish to encourage in patient endurance and strengthen with limits in suffering that is not necessary. In these texts you will learn to distinguish fruitful bearing of injustice from the fight against injustice, and humility will finally separate itself from humiliation before your eyes. In all of this you will recognize peace in turmoil and steadfastness in trial.

A spiritual friendship that defies all standards: Elena Guerra, Apostle of the Holy Spirit, and the fragile Gemma Galgani – two saints from Lucca, united in holy love for God.
