THE BOOK
In every age, God raises up holy servants to confront the world’s darkness with the light of his mercy, and in the last century he gave the Church two extraordinary witnesses: Pope St. John Paul II and St. Teresa of Calcutta. In Icons of Mercy, journalist and papal scholar Patrick Novecosky explores their remarkable lives, friendship, and shared mission, revealing how their distinct vocations intertwined in a common zeal for souls and defense of human dignity. Together, their Christ-centered witness changed the world—and their legacy continues to inspire and transform it.

Patrick has given us a timely and inspiring book about two lives that changed the world forever." — Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the House.
"John Paul II and Mother Teresa were, quite literally, saints in our time—saints among us. We knew them, and they knew one another. In this touching new book, Patrick brings them together in a way no other author has." — Paul Kengor, Author, A Pope and A President.
