St. Thomas the Apostle, also known as Didymus, was one of the twelve
disciples of Jesus Christ. He was a dedicated follower, but sometimes
said things impulsively. Because of his unwillingness to believe the
testimony of the other disciples who had seen the risen Christ, he gave
rise to the expression "Doubting Thomas." After the ascension of Christ,
he went on to spread the Gospel to the Parthians, Medes, and Persians,
eventually reaching India where he eventually died. Saint Thomas is the
patron saint of builders, architects, India, Sri Lanka, and Pula,
Croatia. This prayer journal includes beautiful artwork and a treasury
of information to help increase your devotion: two short biographies of
St. Thomas; reflections from St. John Chrysostom and the Great Biblical
Commentary of Cornelius À Lapide, a novena, prayers, and excerpts from
scripture. It also has 75 lined pages for you to record your own prayer
intentions.
