I was able to get into this book really fast. It is very fast moving and got me hooked in the first few pages. There were several things the author said that I thought were great and agree with. Then there were some I hope come true that were revealed at the end of this book. We should keep that a secret so maybe it will come true.
I was impressed that there is so much going on with the young Catholic adults in this country and the world. It's great. I'm very encouraged by it. I have shared a great deal of the book with others. I have a list of people to lend my book to and have also encouraged others to purchase their own copy. It's been a real positive eye opener. I'm sure there is activities going on in my state/diocese but not enough to make it into this book. I do know others who belong to certain Orders or attend some of the schools mentioned. If the young continue the things they are in to then the CatholicChurch is really alive and well-and growing. Just wish I had these opportunities available when I was young.
Thank you, Tim Drake
Veteran Catholic journalist Tim Drake presents Young and Catholic: The Face of Tomorrow's Church, is a positive-minded and heartwarming glimpse into the lives of up-and-coming young Catholic people striving to spread good works, prayer, and the message of their faith. From web-savvy Catholics seeking to evangelize secular culture through the Internet, to the celebration of World Youth Day when thousands of young people gather and pray to show their love for the Pope and Jesus Christ, to teen groups dedicating themselves to Christian service, chastity, and promoting the Church's teachings, Young and Catholic observes the next generation of the passionately faithful taking root and flowering. A brightly optimistic look at the future of a global faith.
