Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Saint Ga�tan, Founder of the Order of Th�atins: From a Biography of the Saint
By promoting the frequentation bf the Sacraments, and especially of the Holy Eucharist, so much attacked by heresy, he laid the foundation of solid and true devo tion, and promoted the worship due to that holiest of sacraments.
The devotion of our saint to the Blessed Virgin was most filial. His confidence ln God's providence was most striking, as shewn in his life, and the rules he laid down for his congregation. To carry out more fully these pious ends, and spread the devotion so dear to him, our Saint founded the Congregation of Clerics Regular - called after him, Th�atins.
