Focused on our Catholic faith, Albert Domm’s 21 Centuries of Church History in 21 Pages engages the Catholic reader in a concise but rich history of our Church one full century at a time. A narrative flow, this history is more than just a chart of dates and facts but a real story of our Catholic culture.
Paperback: $19.95 | Kindle: $9.99
“21 Centuries of Church History in 21 Pages is a pithy book that provides synopses of consequential events and significant people of the past 21 centuries. All are described within the context of the Catholic Church as distinct from any other history since Catholic history is sacred history, the sacred history of the Holy Spirit extending Christ’s presence in time through the Sacramental Church and, in particular, through saints. I highly recommend this charming book.” – Very Rev. Peter Samuel Kucer, MSA, author of Catholic Church History: Pre-Christian to Modern Times, Eastern Civilization from a Catholic Viewpoint, East and Southeast Asian History, Western Civilization: From Prehistorical Times to the Protestant Reformation and Western Civilization: From the End of the Renaissance to Modern Times.
“Dr. Albert Domm has created a marvel, a history of the Catholic Church in twenty-one pages. Ludwig von Pastor wrote a history of the popes and it took him forty volumes. More recently, Warren Carroll and his wife produced a history in six volumes. Remarkably, 21 Centuries of Church History in 21 Pages covers all the bases and introduces to the reader most of the main characters in history of Catholicism. This book would be a great resource for an RCIA class or another place where a quick overview is needed. The book is easy to read and filled with entertaining tidbits. Dr. Domm includes an excellent annotated bibliography which is helpful for further research.” – Msgr. Michael Witt, host of several WCAT Radio Church history programs entitled Witt and Wisdom, including “The First Twelve Generations: The Early Church History,” “Medieval Catholic Church History,” “Catholic History from Modern Times (1274-2000)”
Albert Domm received a BS in chemistry and biology from the University of Alabama in Birmingham and an MD from the University of South Alabama College of Medicine. He did a residency in Pathology at Emory University (Atlanta, GA). He is board certified in Pathology and is in private practice. In 2013, he received a Masters of Theology with an emphasis in Church history from Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, Connecticut. He has taught a number of classes in Church History at a parish level. He is the father of five children and resides in Columbia, Tennessee, which is a little south of Nashville.

Silver Medal Winner!
The Division of Memoir at the Catholic Media Association Awards
Beautifully told story of faith in Our Blessed Mother in which the author shares, intimately, how she has received the grace to communicate with Mary and also has developed an understanding of miracles. After experiencing the painful loss of her younger brother, the author considers pilgrimage to Medjugorje — and a focus on helping the sick, disabled, and the lost. She, eventually, becomes a pilgrimage leader, bringing pilgrims to other holy places as well. This book was written over time and covers some 36 years of events well worth knowing.
March 25, 2021Dear children! Also today I am with you to tell you: Little children, who prays, does not fear the future and does not lose hope. You are chosen to carry joy and peace because you are mine. I have come here with the name ‘Queen of Peace’ because the devil wants peacelessness and war, he wants to fill your heart with fear of the future – but the future is God’s. That is why, be humble and pray, and surrender everything into the hands of the Most High Who created you. Thank you for having responded to my call.
“My friend Penny Abbruzzese has written an engrossing book about what it means to dedicate our lives to the unfolding private revelations at the Medjugorje healing shrine. While many of us believe that Mary is the prophet of our times, few are more dedicated to spreading Mary’s messages than Penny. Her book is truly inspirational, not just for the spiritual information it conveys, but also as a testimony to what one dedicated person can do in their efforts to move mountains.” – Peter Breen, author of Prodigal Pilgrim: Letters to Pope Francis from Lourdes, Fatima, Garabandal and Medjugorje
“In Matthew 5:14-16, Jesus said… ‘You are the light of the world!’ In this beautiful memoir, the reader will see how that happens; how Jesus illuminates, elevates, and sanctifies a docile soul open to his transforming love… and how that soul then goes forth as light into the darkness of this world. Penny’s wonderful story gives a powerful witness to our Mother’s fundamental role in this mysterious process in which our Father draws his children into his presence and makes them one with him… as he is one with them.” – Fr. Lawrence Edward Tucker, SOLT Author of The Prayer of Jesus Crucified; Adventures In The Father’s Joy!; To Whom The Heart Decided To Love; The Redemption of San Isidro
“Penny Abbruzzese’s book Medjugorje: My Lifelong Journey with Our Lady, Queen of Peace is a heartfelt tribute to the power of Our Lady’s Love working within a life and heart truly open to Her grace. Penny takes the reader by the hand and travels with them through the joys and heartaches of her own life, all the while showing the ever growing influence of Our Lady’s Love and Teachings, especially as shared with her through Medjugorje. This book will inspire faith and hope in the reader that the power of God and Our Lady’s Motherly care is truly alive and active in each person’s ordinary life.” — Mary Kloska, author of A Heart Frozen in the Wilderness: The Reflections of a Siberian Missionary
“In the 40 years of unprecedented reported daily apparitions of Mary in Medjugorje, Our Lady’s messages, which Penny strives to emulate, has led her to new life in the Holy Spirit as I have witnessed her spiritual growth during the 30 years since we met. Our Lady’s School of Love in Medjugorje takes Penny’s pain and suffering from her brother’s tragic death to peace and confidence in God’s Providence as she shares her journey of faith which I find truly inspiring.” –– Fr. John McFadden, Retired Priest of the Diocese of Scranton, PA
“This is an excellent book of a life transformed by a simple message from Our Lady. I was inspired by Penny’s courage to travel to an unknown country; the adventure captivated me, but what kept me reading was how that one trip kept bearing fruit in so many unexpected ways!” — Marie Baker- Harrogate, N. Yorkshire, UK
“Penny Abruzzese demonstrates through this book that she is a light shining in the darkness in the shared glow of the light who is Our Lady of Medjugorje!” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, author of The Narrative Spirituality of Dante’s Divine Comedy
Penny Abbruzzese has a strong devotion to Our Blessed Mother and is a religious pilgrims’ coordinator, who made her first pilgrimage to Medjugorje in Bosnia-Herzegovina in March 1984. Since then, Penny has been to Medjugorje more than 100 times with groups from near and far. In the 37 years since her first pilgrimage, Penny has led tours to holy places such as Fatima, Lourdes, Garabandal and Santiago de Compostela. She has visited shrines in France, Italy, Bavaria, Mexico, Turkey, Greece, Poland, Prague, Vienna and Israel’s Christian holy places.
Working alongside the New York City Croatian Church which is a sister parish to St. James in Medjugorje, Penny sponsored several visionaries and well-known priests from Medjugorje to speak in New York. As one of the founding officers of a non-profit organization, Our Lady Queen of Peace Prayer Group, Penny published a newsletter, Mary’s Mantle, for 25 years with a readership of over 5,000 subscribers. Mary’s Mantle expounded on Our Lady’s messages, featuring prominent articles about healing – both physical and spiritual – and beautiful testimonies of conversion through Our Lady’s reported apparitions.
Several prayer groups were started by Penny and (always) a priest, along with a small group of friends who had experienced Medjugorje together. Four prayer groups met monthly, meeting from 1986 until 2013 praying for vocations, families, world peace and for an end to abortion of First Friday until March 2020, when the risk of COVID19 discontinued this devotion.
Penny was a guest of Monsignor Tom Hartman’s Rockville Centre Diocese’s Network, Telecare, back in 1987 and the 1990’s sharing about her experience in bringing internationally known close friend and prayer partner, Detective Steven McDonald, to Medjugorje. Steven became a quadriplegic after being shot in NY’s Central Park back in 1986.
In 2014, Penny co-produced a documentary about the reported apparitions of Medjugorje entitled “God Exists…The Queen of Peace Speaks from Medjugorje.” Penny’s film was written and produced by Peter Powell, a researcher and cinematographer who had worked on more than 150 media campaigns in the USA and overseas. Penny’s narrator was Rita Gam, a veteran actress, who was under contract with MGM studios. Over 3,000 copies of Penny’s documentary have been distributed and are available on Amazon.
Penny’s life took a drastic turn when she was very far away from her faith. The pain of her younger brother’s suicide brought Penny to her knees. Her conversion story, Medjugorje…My Lifelong Journey with Our Lady, was inspired by Fr. Svetazor Kraljevic, OFM, in Medjugorje. In her book, Penny takes the reader from her darkest days of losing her closest friend, through stages of surrender, and finally drawing closer to Jesus by way of Our Lady’s messages from Medjugorje.
Penny has been married to Michael for 50 years. She is the mother of three children and grandmother of six and currently lives in Lynbrook, NY.
