The Monsignor's Garden

By Rex Jacobs

The Monsignor’s Garden is a story of abuse of power, denial of responsibility, and the final healing for a victim of a man of the cloth, and an awakening for another man of the cloth. There is good and bad in all walks of human existence, and sometimes one’s faith is severely challenged. Good men face the truth, others attempt to bury it. The truth in the end though, will eventually find a way forward.
Any connection to persons either living or passed on is strictly coincidental. This is a work of fiction, written and compiled in acknowledgement of the many victims who have been denied justice over many years of such events.

Rex Jacobs

Life is a wonderful, exciting, sometimes dangerous and often totally boring trip. I have certainly had a taste of all these slices of the human experience and thankfully have managed not to overdose in any particular compartment.I strive to write as honestly and openly as possible, but will never get drawn into discussing the source of inspiration for any particular tale. They are all true in some way. We all have our own truth. That is the way it is with mankind.My journey is seventy years young as of 2016, and if you don’t find me plonking away at a keyboard, I’ll be somewhere behind the lens of my faithful Nikon, tending my private garden or manipulating some beautiful pieces of glass into some form of art.I write for enjoyment, and always endeavour to capture that ‘I know where he’s coming from moment’. This is my first real attempt at the online publishing world, and would love to take the opportunity of thanking you for popping in to meet me.I hope you enjoy the read, and wish you every success in life. It is a wonderful trip.Rex Jacobs.
