A Courageous and One of the Greatest Catholic Priests of Our Time

Miguel Pro was one of the greatest priests of his country and of the Catholic Church. Refusing to go to exile in another country, he stayed in Mexico City and helped countless souls with the Sacraments of the Church.

The book is brief but very informative about his life. I hoped that one day he will be canonized a saint.

Viva Cristo Rey!

I enjoyed reading this book so much because my father had talked to me about that era in Mexico. What a beautiful person Miguel Pro was. This would make a great movie! A lot is written for such a small book. Couldn't put it down.


Blessed Miguel Pro

The life of this great martyr and St is filled with so much laughter, danger, fun and excitement. It tells the story of a brave young man that dodged the police in the time of the persecution in Mexico to bring the Sacrements to the dying. His life ends in the most heroic way, after serving God and man on earth, he became a martyr for Christ. He is a shining example of what a true Christian should be. He is my hero. His life is so humorous and exciting you won't be able to put the book down. This is definitely the greatest book. I would recommend it for everyone, young and old.
