This action-packed, full-color comic book biography tells the inspiring life story of Father Joe Walijewski, priest of the Diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin and founder of the Casa Hogar orphanage in Peru. From his days as an impressionable young boy in Michigan, where he discovered a unique call to the priesthood, to his daring adventures as a missionary in South America, readers are immersed into the heroic actions of a courageous Champion of the Poor.
This project is a collaboration between Voyage Comics and the Father Joseph Walijewski Legacy Guild of the Diocese of La Crosse.

Purchased for my grandchildren. While my grandson was reading, his sisters were reading along with him over his shoulder. The cover art caught their attention. The interior drawings and storyline held their attention. Am so glad that I ordered.

A fine, bio comic
Another entry in the tradition of the Fr. Peyton comic, solid read about a priest I hadn't been aware of.

I appreciated the effort to inform us about this person. I will be watching for more news about his canonization.
