The Practice of the Vows
by Louis Colin, C.S.S.R.
276 pp., Paperback
The Religious State is one of the most brilliant manifestations of the life of the Trinity, one of the surest ways of imitating Jesus Christ and one of the most authentic and riches forms of Christian spirituality. It is a stable way of life, in which the faithful, grouped under a rule approved by the Church, not content with keeping the Commandments, strive by the practice of the Evangelical Counsels of Poverty, Chastity and Obedience, to attain the ideal traced by the Savior: "Be you therefore perfect as also your Heavenly Father is Perfect."
Thus does Fr. Colin, the renowned writer of books for consecrated souls, begin this important book for consecrated religious. For long, the book has been out of print, but happily it one of the books deemed worthy of making available again. Despite all attempts to destroy the existence of consecrated religious life, God's grace inspires souls to embrace it. It is for this reason that we are offering the book on our website. We have many priests and Religious visiting the site, and we hope they will benefit from this treasured book, in which Fr. Colin teaches, encourages and inspires souls as to the nature, letter and spirit of each of the three vows of chastity, poverty and obedience.
