Life with "Father": One Man's Journey into Light...and Love Jacqueline Switzer

Burning questions. Questions such as: "Are life in the service of Christ's church and love for a woman mutually exclusive concepts?" Ordained a priest only seven years ago, Roger Switzer found himself at a moral and emotional crossroads. In January 1965 Roger Switzer met Jacquie Terhaar and his life changed forever..... again. This is the story of one man, a priest, and his sometimes joyous, often times anguished journey into life and love. It is the story of a life devoted to the service of others and unconditional love. It is a story of unbridled passion for God and family. It is a tale told through the eyes of a man now passed, as recalled by his soul mate left on earth. It is a love story whose joy is in its telling and in its resolution. In this book, written in a fascinating first person tense, you the reader will be guided along the sometimes tortuous, but always loving, path of decision and reconsideration, followed ultimately by the blossoming of love, between a man and a woman; this man however being first bound by his vows to the Roman Catholic Church as a priest, and the woman undeniably bound by the forces of love. Page after page in the voice of the author, and from the letters written at the time by her late husband, we are taken along on this wondrous and joyous journey into light and love.
