Soul Pain : Priests Reflect On Personal Experiences Of Serious And Terminal
$27.00Add to cartPriests in their pastoral ministry encounter heart-breaking incidents occurring before what is regarded as a normal life-span: a child with cancer, a road accident, a seriously ill young mother, a bright student struck down.
