THE SECRET DIARY OF ELISABETH LESEUR
Author: Elisabeth Leseur. 290 pgs. Paperback.
When Elisabeth Leseur died, her atheistic husband, Felix, found the secret diary she had kept.
Page after page revealed to him the life of Christian simplicity she had lived amidst the swirl of Parisian society.
Elisabeth had used her illness and even Felix's constant efforts to destroy her faith as means to grow in love for him and for God.
Felix's eyes were opened. He became a Christian, and soon entered the seminary. At the urging of friends, he published the diary — charting a path to holiness for all who have loved ones who are indifferent or hostile to the Faith.
