Saint Edith Stein Martyr Minibook

Saint Edith Stein Minibook is a printed 36-page Catholic saint biography by Bob and Penny Lord, published by Journeys of Faith. It introduces the life, conversion, and martyrdom of Saint Edith Stein, a Jewish convert to the Catholic faith who died at Auschwitz. Unlike a general history text, this minibook focuses on her spiritual witness, her connection to St. Teresa of Avila, and her prayers for both victims and persecutors.

• Printed minibook format for easy reading, travel, or parish study
• 36 pages with a focused account of Saint Edith Stein’s life and death

Drawing from the authors’ visit to Auschwitz, the text reflects on the suffering endured in the Nazi death camps and the lasting impact of that history. Compared to a broad saints collection, this title gives concentrated attention to one modern martyr and her witness of faith under persecution.

Readers may use this minibook for prayerful reflection, confirmation saint research, classroom discussion, or Lenten reading. It is especially relevant for those seeking Catholic books on martyrs, Jewish converts to Catholicism, the Holocaust, and saints connected to redemptive suffering.
