Welcome to Nativity Press, a small Roman Catholic publisher helping young hearts discover the face of Christ. Nativity Press is pleased to announce the publication of its second book, The Costly Cookie Chronicles: A Young Heart Discovers the Face of Christ.
Eleven-year old Clare wants to be a saint for Jesus, but there are a few things standing in her way: everything she says, does, and thinks. Well…not exactly, but almost. Clare finds surrendering her will to Jesus unbelievably hard, until a visiting priest shares an amazing secret during her church’s parish mission.
In this second book by Julie Kelly, Clare discovers the tender love of Mary, the transforming power of meditating on the life of Jesus through the rosary, and the joy of contemplating with Mary the face of Christ. And in her delightfully candid way, Clare invites readers to walk the narrow road with her to Jesus through Mary.
“I highly recommend this lovely book by Julie Kelly. I pray that every young person who reads this book and prays the rosary will discover the face of Christ through Our Lady and her rosary. Vocations are born, future saints are made, and purity is retained when children learn to treasure the great gift of the rosary. May every child and adult who reads this book be inspired to never let a day go by without holding the hand of Mary, laying roses at her feet, and prayerfully meditating on the saving mysteries of Jesus!”
