You know our esteemed clergy-authors, now know more about their books!

Desire of the Everlasting Hills (Father Erick) is a book of prayers, both in English and Filipino, written as a gesture of thanksgiving to the Lord for His act of perfect love. It may be prayed on First Fridays but also on any other day. It may be used to honor the Sacred Heart of Jesus or just as an aid to prayer of gratitude of supplication. It may be used by a community of Catholics or by individuals who just want to have quiet time in adoration. Used in whatever way that suits a person, this book seeks to help the reader to connect with Jesus in an intimate way through a contemplation of the important traits of His heart, which are also important invitations for every Christian to become.

 

Joy for the Journey (Father Bob) explores the metaphor of a spiritual road along which those seeking peace and joy in their lives may find them on their journey. The 'roadmap' for this spiritual travel goes through some of the hardest regions of our lives, through pandemic and social upheaval. While based in scripture, the itinerary is told through touching stories from the author's life.

 

Meaning (Deacon Rob) is about one man’s carefully ordered existence suspended when he awakens in the jungles of Costa Rica after miraculously surviving a plane crash.  Conversations with God during his struggle to stay alive inspire him to rediscover meaning in life.

 

SEMS (Deacon Ramon) is a collection of comic strips about life in a seminary and Catholic culture. While written for seminarians, these cartoons are quirky, humorous, and at times poignant, touching on topics that average Catholics can identify. SEMS is a wild ride, but only for those who love God, love the Church, and who can laugh at themselves (but definitely not for kids).
