Priests We Need to Save Church

In The Priests We Need to Save the Church, Kevin Wells lays out a blueprint of priestly heroism, calling for todays shepherds to take the narrow path of self-denial once tread by St. John Vianney, the priest-saints of old, and his own uncle, Monsignor Thomas Wells a beloved priest from Washington D.C., who, before his shocking murder, led more than a dozen men to the priesthood and affected the lives of thousands. It is the day-to-day witness of the sacrificial parish priest that will rescue a Catholic Church in seeming terminal disarray. Exploring the astounding impact that his uncle Tommy thought by many to be a martyr for the Faith had on so many souls, Wells shows how only the sacrificial and steady work of the parish priest can steer the Church aright, forming it into the holy, fruitful institution Christ intended two thousand years ago.
