Father Hector Bolduc-Defender of the Catholic Tradition

Father Bolduc was an enigmatic and inscrutable priest. You will not find a role model that Father Bolduc followed as he was unique, energetic, and committed to bringing the universal and eternal Catholic truths to as many people as he could evangelize in his 20 awake hours each day. In his first ten years as a priest, he founded 60 chapels including the famed St. Mary's in Kansas and the St. Vincent's cathedral in Kansas City. To communicate these truths, while resting after preparing the beautiful Queen of Angels in Texas for its first Mass, he shocked the tired workers with his idea to create the Angelus magazine. He never stopped working for the greater glory of God. What formed such a man to take on his unfathomable duties as a tireless priest is described in the first part of this book. Next is described his priestly life from many sources including the diaries he kept since a child. In the appendix is included the notes from many interviews with those who knew Father as a person and priest.
