He Is My Heaven: The Life of Elizabeth of the Trinity
Author: Jennifer Moorcroft | Paperback | 188 pages | ISBN 9780935216257 | ICS Publications

Enter into the contemplative and luminous life of Elizabeth of the Trinity (Élisabeth Catêz), a young Carmelite mystic whose interior union with the Holy Trinity continues to inspire souls today. In He Is My Heaven, Jennifer Moorcroft draws upon Elizabeth’s own writings, letters, and historical sources to present a readable, faithful portrait of her journey of faith.

Born in 1880 and entering Carmel in Dijon, Elizabeth lived only twenty-six years, but her spiritual insight and devotion left a profound legacy. Her central theme was the indwelling Trinity — the mystery that God dwells within the human soul — discovered in silence, prayer, and love, and then lived outwardly toward neighbor. 

Moorcroft traces Elizabeth’s early years, her interior struggles, her growth in contemplative union, her ministry of prayer even before entering the cloister, and her final illness and death. Throughout, excerpts from Elizabeth’s own voice help readers enter her contemplative world and make her spirituality accessible for modern seekers. 

He Is My Heaven is ideal for readers wanting a clear, devotional biography of a modern mystic. It serves well in private prayer, book groups, parish libraries, or as a gift for those drawn to deeper interior life.
