Moving Forward!
Lent’s journey continues as we prepare
the catechumens for baptism. This will occur on Easter with
the community accompanying them in prayer. Among other
things is the Via Crucis: a very heartfelt journey retracing
the path of the Passion of Jesus, along the 14 stations, in
we will meditate on the steps of the Man of Sorrows.
Saturday and Sunday the Parish organizes
a small Forum for our youth, in preparation for the next
Pilgrimage, which will take place in 2 weeks (48 km on foot,
up to Bahoyo).
On Monday afternoon we delivered the
second term report cards to the students of our Lycée
St.Augustin. It is with pleasure that I noticed that the
girls are mark have gotten much better: in more classes they
finally have achieved the highest marks!
Also moving forward is the work of the
Chinese company that is extracting gold in the surrounding
areas of Bozoum! Despite the decision of the Minister, the
works have resumed, even if a little silenced (at night, or
on the most distant sites). Complicity? Effrontery? Just
Friday, during the Mass for the anniversary of the death of
the first president of Central Africa (Barthélemy Boganda),
I explained to the community the big problem of
indiscriminate excavation, pollution and theft of raw
materials by the Chinese company. The Prefect was present,
who did not flinch. Complicity?
In these days Paolo Silvestro is
completing the layout of the French version of the book
"Coraggio!”
