“In her most recent book, Susan Tassone — our very own ‘Apostle for the Souls in Purgatory’ — uses the spiritual wisdom of St. Faustina to call us all to conversion. Use it faithfully to pray for relatives and friends, and apply it to yourself to help with your own growth in holiness.”

“Following her many valuable books on the holy souls in purgatory, Susan Tassone’s St. Faustina Prayer Book for the Conversion of Sinners involves three of my favorite topics: St. Faustina, mercy, and conversion. This is a great book to help you pray for others, but it’s more than that. Filled with prayers and inspiration for the continual, day-by-day conversion of our own hearts, it’s a book for each one of us.”

Author of Mercy’s Gaze
“Each of us is called to become a saint. Once we hear the call of God, experience the pulsating love of the divine, and surrender every facet of our life and personality to the Lord, nothing can ever be the same again. Susan Tassone’s latest book, St. Faustina Prayer Book for the Conversion of Sinners, can greatly assist in the continual conversion of heart, mind, and soul needed to wholeheartedly respond to this universal call to holiness. The plethora of prayers, devotions, and spiritual practices this book contains can help the reader to obtain the graces needed for a deeper commitment to Christ for oneself, one’s loved ones, and the entire world.”

Bishop of Gary, Indiana
“In her — excellent — St. Faustina Prayer Book for the Conversion of Sinners, author Susan Tassone examines and explains the interdependence of all of us in God’s plan of salvation: how we play a role not only in our own conversion but in the conversion of others. As always, Susan never loses sight of the way this ‘vocation’ includes praying for the holy souls in purgatory, just as Our Lady instructed the young children at Fatima in 1917. Charity was the essence of Mary’s message to them when she asked that they work for the conversion of sinners through prayer and sacrifice. It remains her message to us.”
— David M. Carollo
Executive Director, World Apostolate of Fatima
“In the Gospel, Our Lord instructs that some types of spiritual conversion can only be accomplished by prayer and fasting. Susan Tassone’s St. Faustina Prayer Book for the Conversion of Sinners provides us a wonderful resource to help focus one’s prayer to complement one’s fasting. I highly recommend it for those seriously wanting to ‘live the fast’ and convert hearts and souls to Christ!”

“In these secular times that relish personal autonomy as the rudder of life, we are tempted to relish and even boast about our sins. Concepts of conversion, mercy, penance, and forgiveness are hard to digest in this age. Susan Tassone offers a compendium here that brings forth from the Church’s treasury of prayers and self-examen contributions on these subjects by select saints with Sister Faustina Kowalska’s mystical intuitions as centerpiece. This work invites a contemporary generation to revisit the Church’s proclamation of the infinite mercy and love of Jesus Christ. With citations from the Marian appearances appealing for the conversion of souls, this book will assist the pious soul to explore more deeply the freeing experience of conversion and an encounter with the mercy of God that can penetrate the cynicism of the age and draw the soul closer to the person of Jesus Christ.”
— Most Reverend Joseph N. Perry
Auxiliary Bishop, Archdiocese of Chicago
“Once again Susan Tassone has taken the Diary of St. Faustina and culled gems that could be overlooked by even an expert on this saint’s spirituality. (When St. Faustina tells of her efforts to effect a change in her sister, Wanda, I think of all the people for whom I’ve ever prayed.) Susan’s superior writings on St. Faustina’s spirituality can help us each grow in holiness as we attempt to become a channel of God’s mercy for others.”

“Susan Tassone’s St. Faustina Prayer Book for the Conversion of Sinners is a must-read! It not only will inspire you but renew your faith in the unfathomable mercy of God. Do yourself a favor: read this book, share it with others, and trust in the power of God’s mercy to bring about conversion even of the most hardened heart.”
