Opis

"Adventures in Ministry" is one couple's remarkable story of their thirty-five years working in the Catholic church.

In 1963, Cyril and Mary Jo Wuenschel loaded their six children-ranging from six years to ten months old-and most of their belongings into a Volkswagen Bus and left Pittsburgh for San Francisco. Cyril trained at The Institute of Lay Theology at the University of San Francisco with the hope that he would be assigned to a parish as a lay theologian and present a plan of adult education for the community.

They survived the trip West (barely) and found themselves in a drastically different world of graduate school and apartment living, on a very limited budget with six growing kids.

But their journey was just beginning. With the Second Vatican Council big changes were happening in the church, and soon the Wuenschels were working with the alterations in parishes all over the country.

Filled with the family's love of music and the adventures that only a long life in ministry can bring, this remarkable book shares the experiences of lay people within the church and the important role they play.
