About this book
the title "In Journeyings Often" derives its inspiration from the Scriptures (2 Cor 11:26-27), "In Journeyings often, in perils from floods, in perils from robbers, in perils from my own nation, [...]." The story is about the apostolic zeal of numerous Franciscans who traveled to the Orient to spread the blessings of the Kingdom of God on earth. This book spans the efforts to establish an envoy with the Mongolian empire as early as 1245 A.D. with Fr Lawrence of Poland to missionary activities in China as late as 1943 A.D.. There are multiple stories of activities covering the Mongolian, Chinese, Japanese, India, Indonesia, Australasia, the Philippine Islands, and more.
