Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Welcome to Camden, NJ, a city Walt Whitman once described as "invincible" that has now been labeled "the most dangerous city in America." It is also called "home" by the thousands who live here. Take the author's grace-filled journey into the heart of 21st century urban ministry as he chronicles the city's favorite son, Fr. Bob McDermott, who seeks to revitalize a hopeless city by listening to and believing in a God who speaks through those considered "hopeless."

Biografía del autor:

Michael Giansiracusa is an Episcopal priest in the Diocese of P.A. and adjunct professor at Holy Family University in Philadelphia. He earned a B.A. in Communications from La Salle University, an M.A. in Theology from Villanova University and a D.Min. from The Episcopal Divinity School. He previously served for two years as a youth minister near Portland, OR, taught theology and philosophy at the undergraduate and secondary level for 16 years and later facilitated "cross-boundary" experiences that combined prayer, direct service, deep faith reflection and worship at the Romero Center in Camden, N.J. and Episcopal Community Services in Philadelphia, PA. Michael believes that if sacramental worship reflects God's mission then all ministries must have, as their justification, a relationship with the most vulnerable. He lives with his family in Ardmore, PA.
