Memoirs of Father Germain
(Translated by
Founder Edgar Crespo from the original Spanish into English
and published in 2006.)An orphan before age five, Germain spends two
years living alone on the seashore in seventeenth century
France. The fishermen call him “little prophet” since he can
always foretell impending storms. One fateful day he strays
into a castle of monks – and is not allowed to leave. The
monks educate him and he is proved to be an excellent
student, but he suffers from their cold and unfeeling ways.
As a young man, Germain eventually takes his vows becoming a
priest in the Catholic Church. He settles in a poor village
with his faithful dog, Sultan, and it is here that he
consoles the humble and oppressed – sometimes risking his
life for their sake. As his reputation as a virtuous and
holy man spreads, even royalty arrive for absolution of
their crimes.
Father Germain teaches love of the Creator and mankind with
a belief that even the most hardened heart can be turned
toward goodness. He exposes church hypocrisy and is
persecuted by his superiors; yet he continues to teach
according to his conscience.
Memoirs of Father Germain is the touching, true account of
this beloved priest’s life relayed to the writer Amalia
Domingo Soler of Spain. These stories of intrigue,
adventure, human emotion, and morality will provide you with
tremendous love, inspiration, and hope.

A PRACTICAL GUIDE for the
SPIRITIST: Handbook on Personal Conduct
Having faced adversity and tragedy in his early life,
Miguel Vives found salvation in Spiritism and renown and
success as a healing and spiritual medium. Yet while Vives
made his mark as a nineteenth century Spiritist, for anyone
who is determined to achieve moral and spiritual advancement
in this lifetime and beyond, his teachings shine as a
twenty-first century beacon of inspiration and affirmation.
In this concise guidebook, translated by Edgar Crespo, Vives
draws a precise roadmap that shows how we can reach a new
level of spiritual fulfillment and a profound sense of peace
and communion with humanity. Based on his understanding of
the natural and spiritual law of reincarnation, Vives
provides a universal moral code that goes beyond any creed
or religion.
Vives also shows how we are to behave with love and charity
with our families, with ourselves, and with all other
persons, even those who bring heartache and pain. Steered by
an abiding devotion to moral and ethical conduct, Vives
spells out how we can obtain the moral courage to triumph
over the challenges of life.
