The Fountains of the Saviour John H O'Rourke Sj

Messenger of the Sacred Heart, are a continuation of a former series published in a small volume under the name of "Under the Sanctuary Lamp." It has been suggested to give this present series a new title to avoid confusion with its predecessor, which, much to the writer's surprise, has had a very wide circulation. The title of this present volume, The Fountains of the Saviour, is thought to be in keeping with the subjects treated within its pages. For the Beatitudes and the Baptist's Example and the Home at Bethany may not inappropriately be looked upon as flowing to us from the love of the Sacred Heart. It were ungrateful not to express my thanks to two very dear friends, Fathers Joseph H. Smith, S. J., and Mark McNeal, S. J., who, by their careful revision and proof-reading, have made the publication of this volume possible.
