Pope John Paul II
lauded Brother Andre Bessette of Montreal as a “man of prayer and
friend of the poor.” This book tells the extraordinary story of
this unassuming man who, showing exceptional courage and
indefatigable faith, led a life dedicated to the relief of human
suffering, and its timely publication coincides with recent progress
in the cause of Brother Andre's canonization. More than seventy years
after his death in 1937, this humble member of the Congregation of
Holy Cross remains beloved for his mercy to the sick, his devotion to
St. Joseph, and his role in the construction of the majestic Oratory
of St. Joseph in Montreal a place of pilgrimage for millions each
year.
