Description
Religious ignorance and physical poverty pervaded the villages and towns of France in the eighteenth century. During this period of spiritual apathy and treason, Father Moye appeared to enlighten the common people with divine truth and thrill them with love of God. This account of his life and work, the first biography to appear in English, is a fascinating story of high courage and indomitable faith. Author, Raoul Plus, S.J., creates a striking parallel between the work of Father Moye in China and the labors of St. Vincent de Paul in France. Both gave of themselves to the constant preaching of the Word, to the formation of the clergy, to the relief of poverty, and to most tedious journeys where souls were to be saved. (1950) $5.00
