Saint Edith Stein (Ess)
Transforming suffering into sainthood, Edith Stein lived in the complexities of modern political situations with the simplicity of one who is confident in God's ultimate reliability. A Jewish convert to the Catholic faith, Edith became a Carmelite nun. But with the rise of the Nazis, Edith was deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp due to her Jewish heritage. This story of prejudice reveals that God's loving presence brings courage, strength, and peace.Author: Mari Goering, Mary HillPublisher: Pauline Books & MediaPublished: 02/01/2000Pages: 128Binding Type: PaperbackWeight: 0.25lbsSize: 6.80h x 4.40w x 0.30dISBN: 9780819870360Accelerated Reader:Reading Level: 5.7Point Value: 3Interest Level: Middle GradeQuiz #/Name: 49948 / Saint Edith Stein: Blessed by the Cross
