St Francis Xavier

Description

Here is the remarkable story of the life of St Francis Xavier who pioneered the missionary effort in Asia in the sixteenth century, travelling tirelessly to countries as far apart as India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, China and Japan. Giving up a life of nobility and affluence, he adopted and endured the hardships of travel in the East to spread the Good News, and in the pursuit of his goal of service to God and his fellow men, gave up his own life. This book will certainly be a source of inspiration for Priests, Religious, Missionaries and lay people alike.
