The story of a man who sought peace with God. His search began in Spain during the years of the Civil War (1936-1939), and it took him through nineteen long years in the priesthood. Following his conversion to Christ in April 1956 he had an increasing ministry beginning in Bolivia and extending to many Latin American countries. His books contributed to the conversion to Christ of priests in various South American republics. He also enjoyed speaking engagements in Argentina, Uruguary and Paraguay. --from Preface and pages 79-80.
