July / August 2019

Redemptorist Dennis J. Billy continues his series on authors and Church figures who wrote on the Eucharist. He introduces us to the prophetic witness Catherine de Hueck Doherty, who sought to enrich Western Christianity with insights from the Eastern Church and also served the poor. Mary Jane Romero, OSB, offers a beautiful reflection on the sacramentality of the Church. We hope that these and all that this issue has to offer will be a blessing for your summertime reading and prayer.
