NOTES

For centuries, the story of Saint Philomena was hidden away in the darkness of the ancient catacombs of Rome. Only in recent years has her story finally come to light! In this book, the Virgin-Martyr herself shares the splendid account of her short life: from the first moment she fell in love with God to her final moment on earth, when she laid down her life for Him. Join the Greek princess Philomena as her dangerous and breathtaking story unfolds. Bear witness to how this young "daughter of light" defeated the forces of darkness and inherited the extraordinary title "Powerful with God." "Fr. Peregrine Fletcher, O. Praem., is a canon of St. Michael's Abbey in Silverado, California. A native of St. Louis, Missouri, he entered the Norbertine Order in 2013, professed his solemn vows in 2019, and was ordained to the priesthood the following year. He currently serves his community as Master of Novices, with responsibility for forming the many young men who come to the abbey each year to pursue a religious vocation."
