The Life of St. John Neumann

Summary
The Life of St. John Neumann by Fr. James J. Galvin, C.SS.R. Bishop John Neumann (patron saint of Neumann Press!) was the first canonized male saint of the United States. He is proclaimed the model and patron for all the faithful. This is the great story of the poor immigrant who as a priest and bishop, spiritual director, retreat master and confessor, became known for his self-mortification, humility, patience and charity. He introduced the Forty Hours devotion and laid the foundation for the Catholic school system in this country and also founded a religious community of nuns. This book will not only provide you with enjoyable reading, it will fill you with hope, determination and a new resolve in your personal life. Hardcover, 272 pages.
