EXCERPT FROM THE FORWARD: "Any nation or society, organization, or group which endeavors to maintain healthy values and goals must pause once in a while to look back and see what happened in the past in order to gain fresh perspective on the present and chart a direction for the future. When we speak of renewal of our Franciscan life and values, and ministries let us look at those we have inherited from our brothers of the past. They have been and are friars of varied personalities, talents, temperaments and nationalies, and they have made a difference in our lives. They initiated creative ministries wherever they were sent. They were truly 'founding friars' whose work and ministry we continue today.". Inscribed by author. Seller Inventory # 067440
