Wouldn't you like to have been at Jerusalem at the first Pentecost when the Apostles baptized 3,000 and Peter was heard speaking in many languages? Or, to be with Mary and Joseph as they traveled to Bethlehem? Or, when Therese was allowed to look into heaven? Therese Neumann of Konnersreuth was one of the greatest mystics of all times. She possessed all thirteen mystical phenomena of which the most visible were her stigmata, the tears of blood, her inedia (absence from food and drink) and Friday visions of the Passion of Christ. In conformity with the Vatican, the process of her Beatification and Canonization was officially opened on February 13, 2005 by Bishop Gerhard Mueller of Regensburg. Throughout her life, Therese has thousands of visions of the life of Christ, the Virgin Mary and of the Saints. This book, A Gift He Meant for Us, shares some 85 visions with the reader, truly a treasure for the followers of Christ.

The life and remarkable gifts of Therese Neumann (1898-1962), who bore the stigmata from 1926 to 1962,
and suffered the Passion of Jesus on Fridays. She went without food and drink (save Communion) for 26 years.
Also tells of her visions, language phenomena, mystical recognition of the Holy Eucharist, of priests,
priestly blessings and relics, her bilocation and other mystical gifts. 20 pictures in color and over 50 in black and white.
The author was several times a guest of Therese Neumann in her parents' home. A remarkable story!

Why was Hitler consumed with hatred for this German Catholic stigmatist?
Because at the height of the Nazi terror, the tremendous faith she inspired among Catholics posed a mortal threat to Hitler's regime.
Consider: for more than 20 years she lived without food or even water, sustained only by Holy Communion
a fact confirmed by medical experts. On 35 Fridays each year she received mystic visions in which she suffered the Passion of Christ
receiving also His five wounds. And, with her gift for "expiatory" suffering, in which she took on the illnesses and sufferings of others,
she was the instrument of dozens of miracles and cures. As her fame grew, so did the Nazi's obsession with her.
Yet their efforts to kill her were repeatedly thwarted by ordinary citizens. She escaped unharmed when
Nazi tanks turned their guns on her home village of Konnersreuth. Once the war was over, more than 12,000
Allied soldiers flocked to see her, many testifying to her stigmata and mystic ecstasies. One Jewish officer was inspired to convert
after seeing one of her Good Friday visions. This riveting book, first published in 1947, is the most reliable biography of Therese Neumann,
based on extensive testimony by family, friends, and by some skeptics whose minds were changed. Author A.P. Shimberg,
an editor for Milwaukee's Catholic Herald Citizen, also relied on the extensive research of Therese's German chronicler,
Dr. Fritz Gerlich, who was murdered by the Gestapo. Revelations * 15-day period of observation by doctors

John 6: 51-52, 54-58. I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world. Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen, I say unto you: except you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you. He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood hath everlasting life: and I will raise him up in the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed: and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me: and I in him. As the living Father hath sent me and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, the same also shall live by me.
