A Drama of Reform



I recently read A Drama of Reform. It was written by the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal. Two well known founders of the group are Father Benedict Groeschel and Father Andrew Apostoli.

I met Father Apostoli at the EWTN 25th anniversary in Birmingham and he was a pleasure to speak with as well as listen to. He is help leading the cause for canonization of Archbishop Fulton Sheen. There is a picture in the book of Father Apostoli having a prayer card of Archbishop Sheen's blessed by Pope John Paul II.

The book is filled with photos from the Friars' daily lives and pilgrimages. Each of the pictures is associated with essays written by both the Friars and their sister organization the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal. It's well worth picking up a copy.
