Apostle of the Gallows: Powerful Novena to Saint Joseph Cafasso, (Paperback)

This novena to Saint Joseph Cafasso offers nine days of prayer and reflection for those seeking compassion, humility, and strength to serve the forgotten. Born into a humble family in 19th-century Italy, Joseph Cafasso embraced the priesthood with fervent devotion, dedicating his life to the salvation of souls. Known as the "Saint of the Gallows," he became a tireless minister to prisoners and the condemned, guiding them with gentleness, wisdom, and faith to repentance and peace. <p>His quiet holiness, heroic charity, and deep trust in God's mercy transformed even the darkest prisons into places of grace. As a spiritual director, he formed hearts-most notably that of Saint John Bosco-through his counsel, example, and deep interior life rooted in prayer and sacrifice. </p><p>Through daily Scripture, meditations, and prayers, this novena invites us into his spirit of mercy and extraordinary humility. It calls us to serve the wounded, embrace forgotten souls, and become instruments of reconciliation and hope in a hurting world. </p><p>May Saint Joseph Cafasso, patron of prisoners and prison chaplains, intercede for all who seek to bring Christ's mercy to the margins, and inspire in us the courage to love with humility, serve with tenderness, and walk faithfully in God's grace.</p>
