- Do not pay attention to the watered-downed, modernized, "revised" manual of indulgences. The Vatican 2 church has been trying to do away with the Raccolta to appease the sentiments of the protestants who designed that awful council and have been keeping one of the greatest treasures of the Church away from the truly faithful (when was the last time you heard your confessor speak to you of Indulgences, hmm?). And I was quite annoyed when one stated to me after having received the Raccolta, "Oh, haven't you heard? There's no such thing as Purgatory anymore"! By what authority! Where did this terribly misguided individual hear such an absurd statement?!... from the men occupying the Vatican, straight from the top, that's where! Let me tell you that an established truth does not change just because the influences of time does. Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, the Sacraments, the Saints and the Martyrs... they do not and cannot change! Hence when going through the Raccolta one should be careful not to observe the "new rules" regarding Indulgences (not to worry, this book will tell you exactly how Indulgences (which can neither be sold nor bought) may be obtained. Now the English translation of the Raccolta was published in 1957 by the request of Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York under the Supreme Authority of Pope Pius XII, ex cathedra! The book itself is beautifully hardbound with sewn (not glued) pages. Within are literally thousands of prayers and acts of faith, all easily obtainable, set in a very easy to read typeset. There is no table of contents but turn to the back of the book and you will find the index. Even if you are not seeking out an Indulgence for yourself or a loved one, it is an excellent prayerbook of the highest order. You will not find the Raccolta in your parish bookstore. It is a timeless treasure that has no respect for the machinations of men.
- I had been curious about the Raccolta for several years and finally decided to order it. I wasn't disappointed. It has so many beautiful prayers I haven't found elsewhere, the format is really good and the size of the font is perfect for me. ( I don't have vision problems but I still prefer a readable font.) The sections are each very thorough, and there are many prayers to saints that I have never heard of. ( I always enjoy meeting more saints. Any friend of God is a friend of mine.)
- Very easy to look for specific wants...very well indexed.
This book takes you back to the reverence of the Church before the “me first, not God†feeling of Vatican II.
Sturdy cover and easy to read in all light.
Very pleased with it. - The LAST authoritative Raccolta. This is the source of indulgences for the few remaining Catholics who hold to Tradition.
- Some of these prayers I only remember as bits and pieces from my childhood.
The collection runs the course from everyday personal devotions, to novena prayers, to prayers for Benediction and to pray at Mass. I am glad that I ran across this item. It is a treasured book of prayers and is fast becoming an important part of my personal devotions and meditations.
If you are searching for a single collection of Catholic prayers and devotions (indulgenced) this is the prayerbook to obtain.
Superb hardcover and using fine paper stock. - This is THE book on gaining plenary and partial indulgences. Must have for every traditional Catholic home.
- This is a great resource book for the Catholic faith. I am very impressed with this book. If you want to learn about indulgences and prayer, this is worth every cent.
- I am so glad Loreto Press is reprinting some of the great classic books from Catholic history. This 1957 gem is most excellently typeset according to the original, very well bound, and a fantastic resource to have in my theological library.
