The American Apostle of the Family Rosary, Venerable Patrick Peyton, is illustrated in The Tale of Patrick Peyton. The hyperactive little kid, born into a modest household in Ireland, would go on a journey beyond his wildest expectations. His path would lead him to the United States, where he would discover his real calling as a Congregation of Holy Cross priest and champion of family prayer.
Father Peyton was determined in his goal and enlisted the support of well-known Hollywood celebrities and actresses like as Bing Crosby and Loretta Young to persuade families worldwide that "the family that prays together stays together."
Father Peyton was a modern-day missionary who used television, radio, and cinema to foster devotion to the Blessed Mother and urge families to pray together. His remarkable life story is now available in comic book form for the first time.
