Product Description
Author: Rev. Peter M. Rookey, OSM. 167p. PB
Fr. Rookey gives the reader an inspirational portrayal of the founder of his order who later became known as St. Anthony Mary Pucci. When an agnostic government gets into power, Fr. Anthony Pucci and his Servite community are out on the streets in Viareggia, Italy; church property was confiscated and seminaries were closed. He continually displays goodness toward those who do evil to him and his community. Blessed John XXIII canonized him at opening of Vatican II as model for the Council Fathers.
