Angel Garcia's The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico highlights the way that a single person, living with cultural humility and a commitment to radical solidarity, can contribute significantly to social justice. This text contributes to our understandings of the intersection between religious faith and community organizing by offering us a vivid case study of the life of Neil Connolly and the South Bronx. ---Dr. Emily Welty, Director of Peace and Justice Studies, Pace University, The Puerto Rican migration after the Second World War challenged the Catholic Church of New York. Through the efforts of priests like Fr. Neil Connolly, they and the other Latinos who followed became the heart of that Church in the South Bronx. Campaigns for human dignity and social justice played a large part in that process. Angel Garcia captures the spirit of the era, and the spirit of the man. ---James Martin, S.J., author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage and My Life with the Saints, The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico is an engaging study of the dedicated and charismatic Irish-American priest of the archdiocese of New York and the vicar of the South Bronx, Father Neil Connolly, who was widely respected, far beyond the confines of his own faith community, for his efforts in the poorest congressional district in the United States. Pope Francis would have been proud of him because he shared Francis's values and priorities, especially his commitment to the poor. Angel Garcia offers here a valuable introduction to the role of the Catholic Church in the survival and revival of the South Bronx. ---Msgr. Thomas J. Shelley, Emeritus Professor of Church History at Fordham University, From a makeshift confessional in a country store in a bucolic Puerto Rican mountain town to the crime and vermin infested streets of the South Bronx, this book traces one priest's effort to bring to life the Kingdom among God's people at a time of political turbulence and ecclesiastical change. Much like McNamee's Diary of a City Priest , García's The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico gives the reader the compelling story of an urban priest's failures and successes, hopes and frustrations, as he faces incalcitrant city and ecclesiastical systems, while remaining true to his priestly vocation and commitment to the Puerto Rican Catholic community. A testament to the unsung heroes who labored incessantly for the spiritual and social well-being of those whose voices often have been silenced, this book offers a credible interpretation of the ups and downs of urban ministry post Vatican II. ---Ana María Díaz-Stevens, Ph.D., Oxcart Catholicism on Fifth Avenue: The Impact of the Puerto Rican Migration upon the Archdiocese of New York, The Puerto Rican migration after the Second World War challenged the Catholic Church of New York. Through the efforts of priests like Fr. Neil Connolly, they and the other Latinos who followed became the heart of that Church in the South Bronx. Campaigns for human dignity and social justice played a large part in that process. Angel Garcia captures the spirit of the era, and the spirit of the man., In The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico: Neil Connolly's Priesthood in the South Bronx , Angel Garcia tells the story of a man growing into his vocation as he explores what role there is for a priest in the church, among believers and in the world. Based on a series of long interviews the author conducted with the Rev. Neil Connolly before the priest's 2017 death, the book is bolstered by contextual reporting. Like the Bronx, like the church, this story is at times heartwarming, at times tragic., As a deacon and priest in the South Bronx I came to know, respect and admire Fr. Neil Connolly. After reading this book I have come to admire him even more. This biography affords valuable lessons for urban parish community organizers in the United States and for the dialog with the Church in Latin America and the Caribbean." ---Roberto O. González Nieves, OFM, Archbishop of San Juan de Puerto Rico, The Puerto Rican migration after the Second World War challenged the New York Catholic Church. Thanks to the efforts of priests like Fr. Neil Connolly, as well as the people themselves, the Church rose to the challenge, with good will and on-going discernment. Conducted with the people, organizing campaigns involving other priests and religious and lay church workers of the South Bronx, many were invited into cooperation, solidarity and spirituality by Fr. Connolly...Angel Garcia captures the spirit of the era, and the spirit of the man. ---Fr. James Joyce, S.J., former Director of Social Ministries for the New York Province of the Society of Jesus and the past Chair of the Board of Jesuit Social Ministries., The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico: Neil Connolly's Priesthood in the South Bronx by Angel Garcia (Dec. 1, $34.95, ISBN 978-0-8232-8926-4) follows Fr. Connolly's career within the South Bronx, which began with a special church program to address the postwar Great Puerto Rican Migration., The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico is a story of how a priest struggled to live the call of the Second Vatican Council, and how he worked alongside laypeople for social justice in the Bronx. It joins books like The Virgin of El Barrio and Guadalupe in New York in bringing readers into a world of grassroots Catholic activism and a church that lives in protest and community organization., The Puerto Rican migration after the Second World War challenged the New York Catholic Church. Thanks to the efforts of priests like Fr. Neil Connolly, as well as the people themselves, the Church rose to the challenge, with good will and on-going discernment.

Neil in his history, The Kingdom Began in Puerto Rico: Neil Connolly's Priesthood in the South Bronx . Fr. Neil was bigger than life but a humble priest who followed his call to preach the Gospel with an uncanny sense of leadership and community organizing. He carried those gifts that he developed in his work in the South Bronx all the way to the Lower East Side. He believed in the priesthood of the laity and formed people to step up to leadership roles in parish and, in particular, Small Christian Communities, where people shared faith and put it into action. His heart was in the parish but no matter what Fr. Neil was called to do, his wisdom and experience focused on developing leaders in order to effect change for the betterment of all. He was my mentor and friend who shaped my way of ministering in our church and beyond. ---Donna L.
