Yesterday - what a day! Up at 5.15am to go with one local O.M.I. priest for 6.30am Mass at local convent, followed by a 7am Mass with same good father at nearby retreat centre (..a centre once visited by Pope John Paul II).
At both Masses, a new experience for me: a nun, using hands, playing drum to accompany singing of Alleuia verse and other singing. Sister Act at 6.40am - sure concentrates the mind! And of course the singing and music were really beautiful.
Then back to O.M.I. house for breakfast meeting, then with Fr Mario for 90 min drive to a new O.M.I. mission (where we met Fr Gerry, also from Australia) ....after which we returned to Karen area for my 3pm meeting with family of a HK prison inmate.
Same family member kindly spent several hours helping phone more than twenty other families to arrange meetings January 3,4,5,6.
Then when that family member kindly drove me back to O.M.I. centre, we got lost ...for more than an hour...but finally made it home.
Today I'm due to go to another O.M.I. mission in another remote area ....about 5 hours by bus. Due to stay there two nights, then back to Karen on January 2 ....for family meetings starting Jan 3.
Please God I'll be going to Uganda (just Kampala) January 7-12 to meet families of about a dozen Ugandan inmates in HK prisons.
This old man was too tired last night to do usual daily menu of this website. No recordings today, sorry.
I wish all dear readers a Happy Solar New Year!

Feast
of Stephen. His extraordinary forgiveness of Saul surely had something to do
with the deradicalization of Saul.
A
powerful lesson for today's radicalized IS world
