In 1985, Father Peter Hickman, a Baptist minister turned Catholic priest, founded a small parish in Orange, California, to provide a refuge for people-especially those divorced and remarried-who had been marginalized by the Roman Catholic Church. Never did he dream that his little congregation would eventually become the seed of an international movement, and that he would become the founding bishop of this "communion of communities." "Through an Open Door" tells not only Bishop Hickman's story but also the story of the Ecumenical Catholic Communion: its past, its present, and its dreams for the future.
