An Edith Stein Novena– Her Final Days before Martyrdom at Auschwitz

AN EDITH STEIN NOVENA

Dear friends,

The Association of Hebrew Catholics posted this powerful novena, written by Fr. Elias Friedman, O.C.D. It chronicles the final days before the martyrdom of St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein). She is the patroness of My Secret is Mine.

I invite you to join me in praying for peace on this earth, and the salvation of souls. (Please note this is a plea for prayer and tears, not a political statement.)
