About Celebrant’s Flame: Daniel Berrigan in Memory and Reflection:
Daniel Berrigan (+2016+) is most notorious for dramatic anti-war actions and "liturgical direct action." Berrigan was also teacher, pastor, and friend to author Bill Wylie-Kellermann. Celebrant's Flame is a well-researched, but personal book, a debt of gratitude--in the end a tome of love to his mentor. The book includes considerable material by Berrigan himself, some previously unpublished--a wedding homily, a long poem, a controversial speech. These reflections help keep the flame of this beloved celebrant burning for the stunning new movement generation arising among us.
