I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book from one of my favorite priests. I don't know if you will enjoy it as much as I did if you didn't grow up in a barrio. I did walk away with some good spiritual teaching that I can definitely apply to my life, even when not living in the barrio any longer.

Truly a wonderful book! Every urban priest should be like Fr.Enright. So involved in his parish & his flock.

I highly suggest this book!
