A SINCERE THANK YOU TO JOHN M A GRAY WHO GENEROUSLY DONATED THE TWO COPIES OF HIS BOOK, "ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD".

TWO BOOKS TO GIVE AWAY

In 1970, Pope Paul VI canonised Fr David Lewis S J, a Welsh martyr, as one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. Unfortunately, this great saint is little known outside his local area. Because I think he deserves to be more widely known and honoured, I started this blog to try and spread knowledge of and devotion to St David Lewis.

Over the years several books have been written about St David Lewis. However, they are now out of print and material on the saint is difficult to come by. In November of 2009, a booklet “ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD”, about the arrest, trial and martyrdom of St David Lewis, was launched at Llantarnam Abbey where the martyr frequently celebrated Holy Mass. This booklet was written by John M A Gray, a member of Friends of Saint David Lewis. I have two of John’s books to give away to the first two bloggers who trust me enough to leave their mailing address in the comments section of this post.
