Year of Faith

I love the official logo of the Year of Faith. So meaningful and true and depicting the reality of the Church and the Faith in the modern world. What is important, who is important, in whose boat we are sailing, under whose sail we travel together... As I am getting ready for yet another meeting of our parochial committee for the Year of Faith in Kiabakari, as I look at the logo to find inspiration and remind myself again that 'sentire cum Ecclesia' is modus operandi for here in Kiabakari. And this is exactly what we are going to do.

Thank You

Thank you all, who supported me through your kind prayers, thoughts and spiritual solidarity in my solitary retreat. I felt your presence and the power of your prayers. This was truly a genuine experience of the communion of saints. And it surely helped me a lot to stay composed, focused, faithful to the schedule of the retreat and open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. God bless you much!

Into The Wilderness

Tomorrow is the day I will begin my personal retreat in solitude in the wilderness. It coincides with the beginning of the Year of the Faith, the fact I am very happy of. I humbly ask all of you for your kind prayers so that the Lord's Will is fulfilled in this time of silence, detachment and prayer. I will take all of you and all your intentions with me and will pray for you and them. I will be offline for eight days. Hopefully, this retreat I do in the jubilee year of my priesthood, will strengthen me to face boldly and calmly the challenges that lie ahead of me, my world and the Kiabakari community. Fiat Voluntas Tua, Domine!

I will come back to the blog after this experience. Take care for now!
