Getting things in proportion ……
In his latest letter from Uganda Refugee Settlement, Father Jo writes that they are now hosting 42,000+ refugees. But he is delighted by kind donations recently arrived. There are roughly “542 victims to HIV/AIDS as per 2016 screening”. The funds will help Father Jo a lot “in the struggle against this pandemic among the refugees”. “Thank you completely a Million times”. He adds “I keep on being quite busy. Sometimes busy doing nothing”. (I doubt that very much!) But he adds “I have finally got a young curate Father Peter, ordained in August 2016. I am optimistic …. He is quite enthusiastic already”. Now rain has thankfully come after a very long dry spell of many months …. Nature becomes alive again. Father Jo is always so positive, a great example to us. Maybe he can have a rest with us next summer 2017, all being well. Our prayers continue with him …..
