Albert J. Nevins

At the age of 17 he entered Maryknoll and was ordained a priest on June 21, 1942. Father Nevins was assigned to the Cultivation Department at Maryknoll, New York, where he served for 37 years.

Father Nevins wrote 41 books, some translated into foreign languages, and edited or contributed to a score of others. He wrote hundreds of articles for Catholic and secular publications, movie and television scripts and radio shows. He lectured throughout the United States. He held the rank of Lt. Colonel in the Civil Air Patrol, a U.S. Air Force auxiliary, and served for many years as Group Commander for Westchester County, New York.

Although Father Nevins never received a foreign mission assignment, he had dedicated his whole career to the mission apostolate of the Church, spreading the Word of God and the Lord’s urgent call to mission through millions of words sent to millions of people.
