Review # 1 was written on 2012-12-28 00:00:00 Marina Sergej In the latter part of the 1800s, an anti-Catholic and anti-immigrant attitude prevailed in America. In the midst of this setting in Connecticut was a young, caring Catholic priest. His concern for widows and orphans led him to form a fraternal organization of Catholic men to aid widows and orphans. This is the story of Father McGivney's short life and the beginning of the Knights of Columbus, the world's largest Catholic organization today. Father McGivney is undergoing the path to be declared a saint. In this day and age of wayward religious, it is good to read about a priest or other religious from any faith who tried to walk in Christ's footsteps.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-08-05 00:00:00 Johnny Nix This book does a great job of laying out the life of a parish priest in America. It also gives a lot of great information about the founding of the Knights of Columbus which is a Catholic fraternal order focused on charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism that supports church and family. Highly recommended.
