The Crown and Completion of All Sanctity: An introduction to the revelations on the Gift of Living in the Divine Will to the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta, containing only moratorium-free material
The Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta was a 19th and 20th century Italian mystic whose revelations from Jesus, encompassing thousands of pages of material, give insight into a new gift of sanctity for the Church, namely, the Gift of Living in the Divine Will. In this book, you will find an introduction to just what this “Gift†entails and a theological defense of its orthodoxy as perfectly compatible with Catholic faith and morals.
There is currently a moratorium from the Archdioese of Trani (which alone holds legal and canonical rights to Luisa’s writings) on the publication of all of Luisa’s writings, until a complete typical edition may be published. Although this does not necessarily restrict short excerpts from being used, this book is presented which, in order to fulfill the wishes of the faithful who desire to be as compliant as possible with this moratorium, uses only excerpts from Luisa’s writings that are taken directly from Fr. Joseph Iannuzzi’s Doctoral Dissertation "The Gift of Living in the Divine Will in the Writings of Luisa Piccarreta." Fr. Iannuzzi personally translated all of these excerpts from the original Italian of Luisa’s writings, and we can be assured of their orthodoxy. His dissertation furthermore enjoys full Ecclesiastical Approbation from the Pontifical Gregorian University of Rome, authorized by the Holy See.
