St. Margaret Printed Minibook

Saint Margaret of Cortona Minibook is a printed 16-page Catholic minibook by Bob and Penny Lord, published by Journeys of Faith. It offers a concise life of Saint Margaret of Cortona for prayer, personal study, and faith formation. Compared to longer saint biographies, this edition is easier to read in one sitting while still presenting key themes of repentance, mercy, and holiness.

• Printed minibook format with 16 pages for quick reading and reflection
• Written by Catholic authors Bob and Penny Lord
• Focuses on Saint Margaret of Cortona, often called the Magdalen of the Thirteenth Century
• Useful for personal devotion, parish groups, RCIA, and Catholic classroom study
• Highlights her compassion for the Poor Souls in Purgatory and her path from sin to sanctity

As the story of Saint Margaret begins, readers encounter a saint known as the “Magdalen of the Seraphic Order,” a title linked to her place in the Franciscan Order of Penance. The text presents her as a gentle yet powerful witness to conversion, showing how Christ calls sinners to holiness with patience and mercy.

Unlike general Catholic gift books, this minibook centers on one saint and one spiritual message: no one is beyond God’s forgiveness. It is well suited for those seeking a confirmation saint resource, Lenten reading, or a short devotional on repentance and hope. Readers drawn to saints such as Mary Magdalen or Saint Therese will find helpful comparison and spiritual context here. Learn more today.
