Angel Girl (2008)
A touching tribute to Lauren Small, a young girl who passed away at the age of eleven of cancer, Angel Girl breathes the words of young Lauren, sharing with readers how her life was really part of God’s plan for her to be an Angel Girl.
As the book begins, God is addressing a myriad of unborn children, telling them about the contest He is going to hold: Whichever girl is able to teach love to everyone around her will be crowned Angel Girl. Whenever young Lauren gets sick, she realizes this is her challenge and sets out to share love with her doctors, nurses, and fellow hospital patients.
Angel Girl involves all its readers, asking them to share love as Lauren does. She teaches us that obedience to and trust in God is also necessary to understand His plan for all of us.
Pax et Bonum: Reflections on My Journey Through Assisi (2017)
Rev. Msgr. Craig F. Harrison takes us on a spiritual and cultural journey through the streets of Assisi, a small town in Italy and the home of Saint Francis. Pax et Bonum, which appears in the title of the book and many times in the work itself, refers to peace and blessings, which is certainly this book s ultimate motive. Harrison describes travelling through the gates of life as a metaphor for suffering through challenges and undergoing changes in our daily lives. We often pass through our gates with mixed emotions some evoke sadness, happiness, excitement, or dread. By remembering his own journey through the gates in his own life, Harrison invites you to travel with him to Assisi.
