Last 2 Issues

Concerning issues Oct. 13-26, with “John Henry Newman: A Saint for Our Time,” and Sept. 29-Oct. 12, with “Eucharistic Wake-Up Call”:

These last two issues have been the most outstanding ones that you have published recently.  

In the Oct. 13-26 issue, I read every article but the one on the college Newman clubs. 

I found them to be informational, well-written and with articles containing material I found of great interest.   

We are longtime subscribers and usually glance at a few articles. 

These two issues contained information that normally we would have no access to.

It was a pleasure to read the ones presented.
