TESTIMONIALS

“John Paul II said, “The presence of Jesus in the tabernacle must be a kind of magnetic pole attracting an ever greater number of souls enamored of him, ready to wait patiently to hear his voice and, as it were, to sense the beating of his heart” (Mane Nobiscum Domine, 18). In this inspiring and well written book Lynda Rozell invites all of us to take up this invitation and to be drawn into the Holy of Holies found in each tabernacle where the Eucharist is reserved. These lessons and meditations will be helpful for anyone who would like to encounter Jesus in a deeper way in the Blessed Sacrament.” —  Most Rev. Andrew Cozzens, Bishop of the Diocese of Crookston, Chair of the National Eucharistic Congress

“An encounter with Christ in the Eucharist in adoration enables us to have Epiphany Moments where the Lord shines Truth on our lives. This book, Return to Me, can inspire our Epiphany Moments by providing beautiful images for meditation on the Eucharist and encouraging visits to tabernacles.” — Vanessa Denha Garmo, host of Ave Maria Radio’s “Epiphany” program, founder of Epiphany Communications & Coaching

“Lynda Rozell’s book, “Return to Me: Visits to the Tabernacle,” is an invaluable reminder of the treasure that exists in all Catholic churches – the Real Presence of Jesus Christ, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity, in the Eucharist. She dives into the purpose and history of tabernacles and shares why it’s important we spend time before them in adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament to pray to Jesus. She also offers thoughtful reflections on themes and symbols of tabernacle art. Her book is personal, as she traveled across the country, visiting dozens of churches. Photos of the tabernacles bring to life her reflections and prayers. Ultimately, the book is a faith-filled, informative and inspiring way to grow in deeper faith and knowledge of the Eucharist.” — The Very Rev. Edward C. Hathaway, Rector, The Basilica of Saint Mary (Alexandria VA)

“In this inspiring book, Return to Me: Visits to the Tabernacle, Lynda Rozell shares the heart of her wayfaring life—her visits to Jesus in the tabernacles of the many churches she passes on the road. A professional nomad, Lynda lives a life radically available to God’s call to bring the good news of his love to whomever he sends her. And along the way, she gains direction and strength from frequent visits to Our Lord in the tabernacle. A combination of photos, personal stories, meditations, prayers, and information about the Eucharist, tabernacles, and sacred art, Lynda’s poetic way with words makes Return to Me an engaging read. Whether you are a traveler or not, Lynda will have you looking for pit stops in your day and week to check in with Almighty God and gain strength, wisdom, and love for your own journey.” — Ever Johnson co-founder and director of Trinity House Community ministry

TESTIMONIANZE

“I bambini della cappella e il primo Natale” è un racconto affascinante e una lettura adatta a tutte le età, che sicuramente porterà immagini sane e devozioni nelle giornate dei bambini.Emily Enga avvicina la Sacra Famiglia alla realtà, ricordando al lettore che anche questa è la nostra famiglia santa e adottiva, che si prende cura di ciascuno di noi e gode con noi anche delle più piccole benedizioni.”– Thérèse Judeana, autrice della trilogia Ransom:Shadow of an Empire (libro 1: Cross of Secrets, libro 2: Trial By Time e libro 3: Shards of Crystal).

“Emily Enga condivide una deliziosa storia natalizia di viaggi nel tempo e miracoli che sarà amata da grandi e piccini!I bambini della cappella e il primo Natale fa rivivere tutti i personaggi della tradizione natalizia, incoraggiandoci a stare vicino alla Sacra Famiglia come Miriam, Giuseppe, Giovanni Paolo e Zelia.” – Grace Bourget, autrice di Vale of Hope, Ad Maré: Song of the Pleiades, Light of Faith: Poems and Plays

“I bambini della cappella e il primo Natale” di E. G. Enga è un racconto vivace di quattro fratelli che, in stile Narnia, entrano in un mondo magico, viaggiando indietro nel tempo fino alla nascita di Gesù e al nostro essere cristiani. La signorina Enga crea fratelli credibili che si prendono cura l’uno dell’altro. Ha il dono dei dettagli descrittivi: il mercato, i vestiti colorati, i nuovi amici, Simeone nel tempio, i cammelli e la sfilata dei Magi. Questa storia ha un’aura giovane e fresca che non dimenticherò presto. Il mondo non sarà più lo stesso e i fratelli lo sanno. L’incontro con il bambino che cambierà il nostro mondo è trattato con la delicatezza e la delicatezza che Lui intendeva: un Re, ma nato da genitori poveri; le scene dell’incontro con la Sacra Famiglia sono toccanti nella loro freschezza e adorazione”. – Cynthia Linkas, autrice del romanzo VOWS e di Tumbled Time, A book of poems (Aldrich Press, 2020).

TESTIMONIALS

The Children of the Chapel and the First Christmas is a charming tale and a great read for all ages, sure to bring wholesome imaginings and devotions into a child’s day. Emily Enga draws the Holy Family closer into reality, reminding the reader that this, too, is our holy and adopted family, who looks after each of us and enjoys the even the smallest blessings with us.” – Thérèse Judeana, author of the Ransom: Shadow of an Empire trilogy (Book 1: Cross of Secrets, Book 2: Trial By Time, and Book 3: Shards of Crystal)

“Emily Enga shares a delightful Christmas story of time-travel and miracles that will be loved by children and adults alike! The Children of the Chapel and the First Christmas brings all of the characters of Christmas tradition to life, while encouraging us to stay as close to the Holy Family as Miriam, Joseph, John Paul, and Zelie.” – Grace Bourget, author of Vale of Hope, Ad Maré: Song of the Pleiades, Light of Faith: Poems and Plays

“The Children of the Chapel and the First Christmas by E. G. Enga is a vibrant tale of four siblings who, in Narnia style, enter a magical world, traveling back in time to Jesus’ birth and ours as Christians. Miss Enga creates believable siblings who care for one another. She has the gift of descriptive detail – the marketplace, colorful clothing, new friends, Simeon in the temple, the camels. and parade of the Wise Men. There is an aura about this story that is young and fresh that I will not soon forget. The world will never be the same and the siblings know it. The meeting of the baby who will change our world is handled as gently and delicately as He intended – a King, yet born a babe to poor parents; scenes of meeting the Holy Family, touching in their freshness and adoration.” – Cynthia Linkas, author of the novel, VOWS, and Tumbled Time, A book of poems (Aldrich Press, 2020).

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

As a baby, nothing made E. G. Enga happier than having her parents read to her. Before she turned two years old, she taught herself to read, and has loved anything and everything to do with literature ever since. She fell in love with writing stories and poetry in kindergarten and first grade. At the age of 12, she wrote her first published book, The Children of the Chapel and the First Christmas, combining her love for her Faith and literature in her writing. She lives in the Midwest with her parents, brothers, and Daisy Dog, Paddington (the real-life Teddy). When she grows up, she wants to fill her house with books, quilts, and lace curtains, and hopes to continue writing books for children.
