From Humble Beginnings to the Chair of Peter—Through the Eyes of an Angel
Hello! I’m a guardian angel. Yes, a real one. I don’t have big, fancy wings or a golden harp, but I do have an important mission.
The day God asked me to watch over Robert—who would one day become Pope Leo XIV—he said with an all-knowing smile, “You’ll need patience . . . and a sense of humor. But I’m counting on you. This boy has a big mission ahead.”
I didn’t hesitate. I’ve protected bishops, martyrs, and even a missionary who could never keep track of his shoes. I knew I was ready. From the moment Robert Prevost was born into a loving, faith-filled family, God was shaping him for his greatest calling: to become Pope Leo XIV.
Follow his journey through the eyes of someone who was with him every step
of the way—his guardian angel!
Another stirring tale from the Vision Books series for youth 9-15 years, this book tells the charming story of Giuseppe Sarto, "the farm boy who became Pope". Young readers will be inspired by the life of this holy man--from his youthful days of hard work and prayer to receive the education he needed; to his years as country priest, encouraging his people to holiness; through the steady promotions to pastor, monsignor, bishop, cardinal, and archbishop, which he reluctantly accepted but in which he always became the beloved of those he served; to his days as the Holy Pontiff, Pope Pius X, the only canonized Pope of this century. This simple man who never forgot the poor will always be a timely example of holiness.
Born of very humble circumstances, young Giuseppe Sarto had one burning desire while growing up on a farm--to become a priest. But never did he or his generous parents ever dream that he would one day sit in the Chair of St. Peter. This is the inspiring story of the humble "Pope of little children," whose love for Christ and children moved him to change the requirements for First Communion so that young children as early as 7 years old could receive the Holy Eucharist.
To receive Jesus in Holy Communion is to enter into a lifelong friendship with him.
