Fr. Biju Michael's New Book, Mary of Nazareth!

     Please join us in congratulating Fr. Biju on the publication of his new book, Mary of Nazareth Through Poems and Pictures from the Holy Land, written in collaboration with Fr. Antony Vazhappilly of St. James the Apostle Church in Fremont!  Joining beautiful illustrations with original poetry and texts from Scripture, Mary of Nazareth tells the story of Jesus and Mary through a chronological exploration of sites in the Holy Land, and will be a welcome companion on any pilgrim's journey, real or virtual.

     The book is recommended by both the Patriarch of Jerusalem, His Beatitude Fouad Twal, and the Custos of the Holy Land, the Very Reverend Pierbattista Pizzaballa, O.F.M.  Each copy contains actual flower petals from Nazareth, as well as much material for reflection and meditation.


     Anyone interested in purchasing a copy of the book (cost: $40) should contact the rectory at 415.388.4190. (Cash is preferable; checks can also be made out to St. James Parish.)
