In the midst of communism, and the
persecution of Christians in Eastern Europe,
the life of Ludmila Javorova stands out in beauty and
humility.
Called to the sacrament of priesthood she, a woman,
became a prophet to the Catholic Church
at the threshold of a new millennium.
"This profoundly Catholic
book has a bonus:
a stunning portrait of a bishop with guts,
Felix Davidek, Ludmila's mentor and the man who ordained
her,
despite opposition from the faint of heart.
Davidek is a model of what a people's bishop could become
in the 21st century." Robert Blair Kaiser, Contributing
Editor for Newsweek in Rome
