Pope John XXIII

Pope John XXIII. Original title in Vietnamese: Đức Thánh Cha Gioan XXII, Sao Mai Publishing House, Huê 3 November 1960.

This volume commemorates the second anniversary of Pope John XXIII’s pontificate (28 October 1958 – 28 October 1960). It reflects the fervent intention of the young priest F. X Nguyên Van Thuân to love Jesus and His Church to the end, just as Pope John XXIII did.
The book is composed of 11 chapters that follow, step by step, the life of the Pope through to his Pontificate. It is written as a historical-spiritual presentation, based on the model “Father and Pastor”. Its intention is to instil in the faithful, particularly in seminarians and priests, a deep love for both the Pope and the Church.
