The One Who Knows

You Raise Me Up

This song, so powerfully and beautifully sung by Josh Groban, I wish to dedicate on this day, the Fathers' Day, to my Dad, my Godfather, my Granddads and all men in my life who represented to me the God Father himself, who raised me up, formed me, advised me, prayed for me, helped and took care of me in the process of growing up, education, human and spiritual formation, to all those who for me were always the best example of father figure in my life. Love, gratitude and respect!

Mother's Day

Today, on May 26, Poles all over the world celebrate Mother's Day.

Without you, dear Mums, I would not be who I am now. I dedicate this song to all of you - with love, gratitude and respect. God bless you much. Praying for you always...

Asking Mama, Grandma and Grandpa to protect this journey and its outcome for the benefit of Kiabakari. Especially for the benefit of girls and ladies along with our Sisters, who still lack proper housing in Kiabakari...
