Carew's climb to prominence-to being a folk hero in two nations-was long and slow, tempered by illness and early poverty. On Oct. 1, 1945, Olga Carew knew her baby was due and started the journey by train from Gatun, on the Atlantic side of the Canal Zone, to Gamboa, where doctors in the clinic could attend the child's birth.

Some 4,000 Western European followers had flocked in by bus and train, along with 80 priests from round the world. As they sat on wooden benches and freshly mowed grass, the white-haired archbishop delivered a defiant, Luther-like sermon...
...missionary archbishop in Senegal, and has also served as a bishop in France and as superior general of the Fathers of the Holy Spirit. In 1971, convinced that the liberalizing Second Vatican Council had been a grievous mistake, Lefebvre set up his rebel Swiss seminary to train priests in the old ways.
