	Saint John Fisher: Bishop and Theologian in Reformation and Controversy by Archbishop Vincent Nichols Archbishop Nichols: “Studying the life of St John Fisher had a profound and lasting effect on me. He is such an outstanding witness of faithfulness and courage ad was prepared to pay the ultimate price for his faith. His teaching on prayer, on priesthood, his love of the scriptures, his appreciation of the importance of parish life and of service to the poor, speak very clearly to us today.”.

	Take & Read: The Acts of The Apostles by Henry Wansbrough Take and Read: The Gospels’ was welcomed by many thousands of individuals drawn to read and pray the Scriptures. The format is ideal for introducing people to the depth of the text. The presentation of each passage is enriched by excerpts from the Fathers, and the teaching of the Church, and by paintings and photos which lead into deeper reflection and prayer. ‘Take and Read: The Acts of the Apostles‘ invites the reader to consider the early history of the Church and the outreach of the gospel ‘from Jerusalem to Judea to Samaria and to the ends of the earth’. It is the story of the Holy Spirit guiding the Church from the beginning in the work of the gospel, which continues into our own time. Click here to read more or buy

The special edition pays homage to an exemplary Christian and one of the great Bishops of Rome, who the Church will formally recognise as a model of holiness during the Beatification ceremony on 1 May, presided at by his Successor, Benedict XVI. The diverse facets of John Paul II’s personality emerge through his own writings and homilies, as well as through the articles, interviews, testimonies and many rare photographs carefully selected from the archives of L’Osservatore Romano.
