2019: Book Presentation, Fr. Michael Barry, & St. Thérèse of
Lisieux (Little Flower)

In 2019, Archbishop Sylvain Lavoie and Keith finished the
revision of the BFG Handbook with the Bible verses. While they

Msgr. Bonazzi flew to Rome for the gathering of all nuncios in June
2019. Msgr. Luigi Bonazzi, with his supporting letter to Pope
