Ciszek, S.J., finally returned to America. Had he come back a bitter man, or a man of diminished faith, it would have been hard to fault him. But he didn't. For the remainder of his years, until his death in 1984, Fr. Ciszek's grace, faith, and wisdom touched--often in profound and lasting ways--everyone who came into contact with him. With God in America is a collection of previously unpublished writings on Ciszek's post-imprisonment life and thoughts. The contents--which include articles he wrote, speeches he delivered at retreats, letters he sent to people he was counseling, and interviews with individuals who knew him personally--present a man unbroken by all that he had endured and eager to share God's love with others. From Ciszek's first days back home in the States to his final words before his death, With God in America demonstrates that saintliness isn't primarily about acting heroically in dramatic or devastating circumstances, but about honoring the ordinary, everyday aspects of life as treasured gifts from God."--Amazon.com. 600 10 $a Ciszek, Walter J., $d 1904-1984. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $z United States $x Clergy $v Biography. 600 17 $a Ciszek, Walter J., $d 1904-1984. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00350482 610 27 $a Catholic Church. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00531720 650 7 $a Clergy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00864014 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Dejak, John M., $e editor. 700 1 $a Lindeijer, Marc, $d 1966- $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l ULAX314 $d 20190926095601.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=87A04694E02711E98EBD524297128E48 994 $a 92 $b IOLInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
