By Patrick Madrid and Pete Vere, J.C.L.

 

This book explores the history and activities of the breakaway "Society of St. Pius X" (SSPX), which began in the 20th century under Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre (later excommunicated by the Catholic Church).  In addition to providing concise responses to this group's various arguments against the Catholic Church, it also seeks to show, from Scripture, Tradition, and canon law, why faithful Catholics should avoid the SSPX. This book is helpful both for those Catholics who are caught up in "extreme traditionalist" groups, such as the SSPX, as well as for those who have friends or family members involved in them.

 Do you know someone who no longer practices his Catholic faith?  This book will help you bring him back home to the Catholic Church! Search and Rescue is geared for Catholics who want to know exactly what to do to help friends and family come into (or back into) the Catholic Church. Filled with practical and effective advice on what to say, what not to say, and how to say it.

 

Cardinal Edward Egan, Archbishop of New York, said, "How do you bring someone back to the Catholic Church? First, you pray. Then you follow Patrick Madrid's advice in Search and Rescue."
