Children's Book

A new children’s book that tells the story of Bishop Baraga’s life is now available! The Snowshoe Priest is written by local Marquette author, Elizabeth Fust, with illustrations created by Olivia Theut, also a Yooper. This project has been a two-year labor of love and we can’t wait to share it with you! Click here to buy a copy on our online store.

The book was donated in kindness to the Bishop Baraga Association by Elizabeth Fust and Olivia Theut.
