On My Way Home: An Autobiography of a Priest in Today's World

Overview

On My Way Home On My Way Home: An Autobiography of a Priest in Today's World is the life of Fr. Jay Samonie, spiritually adventurous and Catholic to the bone. He was an inner city Pastor whose parish served the social, medical and legal needs of 30,000 people each year, the only priest ever to serve on the judicial Tenure Commission in the State of Michigan (judging judges), and an accomplished artist who never had a lesson but whose many paintings graced two separate Art Exhibits and sold out. All of the above made newspaper and television stories.

What few people knew -- until now -- is that from the age of seven Jay Samonie was blessed with mystical experiences and cultivated a unique spiritual life that touched on miraculous hearings, psychic revelations, and past-life knowledge. Now retired, Fr. Samonie tells his astonishing story so charmingly and matter-of-factly that he cannot help but encourage and inspire believers and skeptics alike, Here, mingled into one fascinating life, are The Beatitudes and The Ancient Wisdom, the Theology of St. Thomas Aquinas and The Silva Method of Mind Development, the Daily Reading of Sacred Scripture and The Edgar Cayce Readings, and enough miracles, large and small to last several lifetimes. On My Way Home is the true story of a "wonderful life" still in progress.
