Abbe Julio

This concise work by the late bishop Robert Ambelain gives the details of the remarkable life and work of Abbé Julio, from hero of the Franco-Prussian War, to ostracized priest of the Roman Catholic Church, to priest-healer extraordinaire and archbishop metropolitan of the Eglise Catholique Française. In addition to the historical brief, Ambelain also gives a thoughtful exposition of the doctrine of Abbé Julio, arguing convincingly for a neo-Origenian theology. Also included are 15 of Abbé Julio's most powerful prayers, making this work not only informative, but practical. This is a great primer for anyone not familiar with Abbé Julio's life and works, and a valuable addition to the library of every current follower of the preeminent priest-healer.
