The story of Saint Mother Theodore Gu\u00e9rin is one that must be told. She offers as powerful a role model for today\u2019s generation as she did for her contemporaries in the early 1800s.
\nHer example of holiness and leadership is timeless.
\n\u2014From the Foreword<\/p>\n
On October 15, 2006, the Roman Catholic Church will canonize Mother Theodore Gu\u00e9rin, making her only the eighth saint who lived and worked in the United States. In celebration of this momentous event, ACTA Publications offers The Eighth American Saint\u2014a comprehensive and readable biography on this inspirational woman that will include a vivid, eye-witness account of the canonization ceremony.<\/p>\n
Saint Mother Theodore Gu\u00e9rin left a legacy of service, piety and faith across two continents. In France she inspired hope while serving as superior to the schools in the town of Soulaines. But it was in the fledgling United States that her abilities shone, as she founded a new congregation of the Sisters of Providence and built schools, orphanages, and even a pharmacy. Her memory lives on through Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College in Indiana\u2014the United States\u2019 oldest Catholic liberal arts college for women.<\/p>\n
The Eighth American Saint was originally published in 1959 under the title Faith Is the Substance by Katherine Burton. Burton\u2019s masterful biography recreates Mother Theodore\u2019s struggles, failures and triumphs. The Foreword and Afterword by Mary K. Doyle bring Mother Theodore\u2019s story full circle, providing a complete story of her life for a new generation of readers.<\/p>\n
