A key book to discover how a private
chapel
became the Shrine of Chimayó
This book is not only the biography of
the man,
but a resource to discern God’s
call in a time when
following God’s will seems to be
utter craziness.
Since biblical times, priests walked with
the people.
While walking on pilgrimage, they were
the temple of God
and God was dwelling in the midst of his
people.
God writes straight with crooked lines
and the life of this
little priest seems to match perfectly
with the little Shrine of Chimayo.
Pilgrims believe that Father Casimiro
Roca is as old
as the shrine of Chimayo. The shrine is
older
but both look like they are made out of
the same clay.
"I remembered the words of my mother
at learning of the death of my brother Pedro: ‘I asked
God for two priest sons. He took Pedro to Himself; now, it's up
to you to be the two priests I asked for and do twice the work:
your part and the part of your brother.’”
