HUNTLEY, Ill., August 4, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Frank R. Ardito Jr., a former visitor, vice-president, and president of a national support group for heart disease patients; has completed his new book, "Street-Level Disciple": a ruminating journey of a man who lives his spirituality. The author invites his readers to join him as he performs his duty as a public servant in the Englewood and West Town Communities and the Upper North region of Chicago. Found within the pages are the people, events, and problems he met along the way while fulfilling his calling.
Frank writes, "One part of my book is about some of the turbulence and unrest in our country in the 60,'s, and 70's, and my humble attempts to respond to such issues as street gang violence, race discrimination and conflict, poverty, riots and near riots. The issues dominating the news today were also present in that earlier period of unrest in our country. Did black and brown lives matter in the turbulent '60s and '70s? How about white lives, did they matter?
"A second part of my book is a challenge to those of us who are people of faith. The world is overflowing with problems, needs, violence, poverty, and more. I see all of this as opportunities, profound opportunities for us to bring our faith beliefs to all the situations we encounter in our daily life. No one of us alone can resolve all these problems, but by trying to bring Christ's love and presence to our brothers and sisters in our communities and world, we can make a difference. We can help build the kingdom of God on Earth."
