The life of Solanus Casey was no great success story. A mediocre student who couldnt keep up in diocesan seminary, he barely made it through the seminary of the Capuchin friars. When he was finally ordained, they made him a "simplex priest" - one who is not allowed to hear confessions or preach doctrinal sermons. So Casey spent fifty-three years in lowly service as a sacristan and doorkeeper. Nevertheless, he graciously accepted this humble station in life, and God rewarded him with a remarkable ministry of spiritual counsel and divine healings. Today he ranks among the most prodigious wonder-workers in Church history. This book tells the startling story of the simple friar whose loving concern for everyday people dramatically transformed thousands of lives.Paperback 144 pages
