THREE STORIES for FRANCIS

About the Book

Are they miracles or are they not? To learn more, read on and enjoy Jerre Cline’s Three Stories for Francis. These short tales, The Present, Tongues of Fire, and Mr. Herbert not only entertain but may inspire and lead to thought, perhaps even action. Set in the late 1980s, they take you into the world of faith-in-action as pastors and prelates, a congregation of everyday folks, an angel, and an entire family deal with challenges ranging from a church fire and temptation to high tech evidence of the Holy Spirit, and a way to save the Congo.

About the Author

The Franciscan aura surrounding the election of Pope Francis following the selfless retirement of Pope Benedict XIII in 2013 inspired Jerre Cline to share three short stories that he wrote prior to 2010. One turned out to be prophetic. These faith-based stories and his detective fiction written under the pen name, Jerre Morrissey, all hark back to memorable vacations in Switzerland (1980s-2003). He was a Korean War military historian stationed in Wiesbaden, Germany, and later became the father of five, a Catholic high school principal, and a volunteer counselor in federal prisons. His writing reflects his abiding, cheerful faith.
