Promises, commitments and work

 

 

 


Promises, commitments and work

Friday, November 24th, after a morning of work on the Bangui construction site, I left with Alessio Vada, the bricklayer, and returned to Baoro.

On Sunday I was in Dobere to celebrate Mass. Today was a celebration for the community, because 29 people made their official promises in the Legion of Mary movement. They are women, the majority, and come from Dobere and nearby villages.

On Monday morning we left at 4 for Bangui, in order to avoid any rehearsals for the parades of the 1st of December, "the" national holiday. We arrived in Bangui shortly after 9, and with Alessio, after a good coffee, we immediately went up to the construction site to continue the work.

In recent days Alessio finished all 44 arches of the cloister, and is currently finishing the last 4 on the entrance.

I'm staying in Bangui for a few days, and I returned yesterday, November 30, here in Baoro. In time for the party and, above all, to leave for the most distant villages on Saturday and Sunday.
