Father Lasance

Rev. F.X. Lasance.

Imprimatur, 1913. Separated into 2 parts.

From the introduction, "While the Blessed Sacrament Book is adapted to serve as a book of devotions for the faithful in general, it is designed as a Vade Mecum for daily attendants at Mass, for frequent communicants, and above all for the members of our various Eucharistic associations while engaged in performing the Holy Hour or the Hour of Adoration."

Readers will find the book split into two parts with the first devoted to general daily prayers and the second devoted to prayers for the saints and prayers of indulgence. Over the span of 1227 pages, this prayer book offers a wide variety of prayers, practically guaranteeing a prayer for nearly every occasion possible.

Thoughts of Many Hearts Together with Reflections on the Life and Virtues of St. Teresa of the Child Jesus Besides Mass and Novena Prayers in Honor of the Little Flower and Communion Devotions.
    Our habitual thoughts make us what we are. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. Sooner or later a man’s habitual thoughts come out in his life and character. What his thoughts are determines what he will become.
    The sayings of saints, and of wise and holy men and women, if read day by day, with prayerful reflection, will cheer us and sustain us in the conflicts with the enemies of our salvation, will help us to do what is right, to press onward and upward, valiantly and persistently toward the goal of perfection.

Reflections on Purgatory

By Rev. F.X. Lasance.

A Complete Prayer-book

Including Special Prayers and Devotions in Behalf of the Poor Souls in Purgatory

Imprimatur, 1922, 442 page book.
Originally printed by Benziger Brothers.

A Rare and Unusual Book!

    It is hoped that this book will cultivate a special devotion to the holy souls in Purgatory. This devotion, while it solaces the Holy Souls, in whose behalf it is directly exercised, is eminently pleasing to God, and beneficial to ourselves. It is hoped that the “Reflections” contained in the first part of this little book will stimulate the pious reader to make frequent use of the prayers and devotions which are found in the second part for the solace of the suffering souls in Purgatory.

Brief Visits to the Blessed Sacrament, together with Prayers for Mass and Holy Communion, Litanies and Devotions for Various Occasions by Fr. Lasance.

Impr 1931, 132 page book.

Among his many writings, Lasance offers up a small book of various devotions, prayers, and litanies for all occasions. Included in this book are footnotes which act as a follow up to previous passages to further emphasize specific phrases.

Along with illustrations, Lasance touches on certain prayer passages and indulges his readers on further reflections on their meanings. For example, from his Reflections on the Second Petition of the Lord’s Prayer: “Thy Kingdom Come”, Lasance says, “Consider that in this the second petition of the “Our Father” we pray for the kingdom of God. Now, we find in Holy Writ that the kingdom of God is understood in three different ways. First, of the eternal kingdom of God. . .” With his teachings, Lasance brings traditional prayers into a new light.

Scriptural Maxims and Spiritual Reading for Every Day in the Year. Meditations and Considerations for the Monthly Recollection and the Annual Retreat. Together with A Prayer-Book for All Ordinary Needs.

Edited by Rev. F. X. Lasance.

The present work seeks to cultivate in souls the spirit of prayer, and to lead them to union with God; it wishes to be helpful to all who, by means of meditation and prayer, are intent upon walking with God in the way of righteousness and perfection; it is designed especially to be of service to devout souls. It is a book of mental and vocal prayer intended for men and women who take a serious view of life; who are convinced that real and enduring happiness is found in holiness; whose love for Our Lord Jesus Christ is such that they desire to do more than merely to refrain from displeasing Him whose aim is to reproduce in themselves the virtues of our divine Master and Model.

By Fr. Lasance.

Impr, 1901, 704 page book.

This book endeavors, in the first part, by means of thirty-one readings and examples, to explain the doctrine of the Church on the Mass in a plain and interesting manner. The second or practical part offers a variety of devotions for Mass and for Holy Communion, so that the book may be more beneficial and useful to the masses. It discusses practical questions on the Mass from a dogmatic, moral, ascetic, historical, and liturgical point of view, as may be gleaned very readily from a cursory survey of the index. It was planned and compiled with a view to making it useful to inquiring Protestants, prospective converts, devout Catholics, and zealous religious. It aims to exhibit the jewels of the Mass to better advantage; to unfold its hidden treasures before the gaze of all classes; and to stimulate the faithful to a more earnest and constant endeavor to appropriate and apply to themselves its rich and abundant fruits for their temporal and eternal welfare.

    The purpose of the present volume is to cultivate among the faithful a tender and practical devotion to Our Lady, which consists, first of all, in having a right understanding of the sublime prerogatives of the blessed Mother of God; secondly, in honoring her, as she is worthy of being honored, by means of meditation on her life and virtues, pious practices, and devotions, not only in the month of May, on Saturdays, and on her festivals, but also every day in the year; thirdly, in following her example and imitating her virtues; finally, in having recourse to her in all necessities with the utmost confidence in her goodness and in the power of her intercession at the throne of Divine Mercy.
