Saint Philip Neri Prayer Minibook

Saint Philip Neri Prayer Minibook

Saint Philip Neri Minibook is a 24-page printed Catholic minibook by Bob and Penny Lord, published by Journeys of Faith. This compact saint biography introduces Saint Philip Neri as the Apostle of Rome and the laity, making it a practical choice for personal reading, parish study, and Catholic gift giving.

• 24-page printed minibook format that is easy to carry, read, and share
• Written by Catholic authors Bob and Penny Lord
• Explores Saint Philip Neri's role in the Counter-Reformation
• Includes accounts of his ministry in Rome, the Oratorians, and reported miracles
• Highlights Chiesa Nuova, where he lived, died, and experienced ecstasy

Compared to longer Catholic books, this minibook offers a concise overview that works well for devotional reading, classroom supplements, RCIA resources, or confirmation saint research. It places Saint Philip Neri in the historical setting of 1515 and the wider renewal of the Church alongside saints such as Teresa of Avila, Ignatius of Loyola, and Charles Borromeo.

Readers can follow his ministry in Rome, learn about the brothers who became the Oratorians, and discover traditions connected to Chiesa Nuova and Our Lady's appearance to him. Unlike a general prayer card, this printed minibook gives more historical context and narrative detail while remaining brief enough for daily reflection, parish libraries, and faith formation groups.
