Dear Friends
As I walked home Monday from metro station, after usual afternoon in prison, I passed through a section of Hong Kong's famous Temple Street Market...parts of which are not places "where you'd take your mother-in-law". People were setting up their stands for the evening trade. At one stand, a Chinese lady was singing "Abide with me" in Chinese, as she was setting out all the adult items (let reader understand) at her stall. A true story...I kid thee not
I haven't a clue what the moral of the story is!
To
balance the above nonsense, hope you have time to read the article about Mary
MacKillop at top of today's menu.
The treatment given her was very similar to treatment given her countryman
Bishop Bill Morris...by the same Firm
------
Today's
editorial in Ming Pao is entitled
Paul Chan Should Step Down.
It can be accessed, together with my recording, at
this site, from about midday today HK time to late evening HK time
On this
8th of the month,
Jesus please bless
the people of Heilongjiang
(Please join me in praying for one
part of China each day of the month)
My Bible Plan for today =
readings for the Feast of St Mary MacKillop
....asking for more of her courage
Thank you for a prayer
God bless!
