Description: "Acts of Faith presents the Catholic Church's actions, social stances, and positions on current events. Orphanages, schools, and liturgical practices fill the pages, along with the events of the larger society. A sequel to Moore's Through Fire and Flood, this is sound institutional history and a chronology of church experience. For the people who read Moore's earlier volume, this one takes the dramatic story through another half-century in time.

And for anyone who wants a fuller picture of modern Texas history, this book adds an important chapter."--BOOK JACKET.
