Thanks, Allen! I received it as a birthday present from my brother, Fr. Charlie, a priest in the Newark Archdiocese. I have a lengthy reading list (especially since several of the books listed on THIS post have only just arrived), but I will get around to reading your book soon.
Happy Easter Octave!
Japhy,
I can't wait.
It sounds like it is going to be wonderful.
I pray that God will continue to bless you and your wife as you do God's will.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend as well.
In Him,
