Dear Friends

One of the aims of Vatican II was Ecumenism - trying to promote Christian Unity among all the various denominations

It's good that old prejudices have gone. It's not good that Ecumenism has stalled in recent years (at least at the local level....not much progress)

May our new pope inspire all Christians, especially Catholics, to give more importance to Ecumenism

With sadness I must record that in my 28 years in Hong Kong, I have never heard of the existence of a 
"Ministers' Fraternal" as in other countries (where pastors of the various denominations in a local area meet once a month for sharing).  I once tried to start such a group, but didn't have any success. Should add there are some good things happening on the Ecumenical front ...but they are largely academic

This week's smile

God bless all on my sick list, in HK, Australia, China and other places,
- especially dear friends battling cancer.....

Thank you for a prayer

God bless!
