greetings, michelle! I am glad to know you are still there…. so what is your plan this coming august 15…. as SMCian? it will be a very special day for us. As of now, i feel obligated to offer special intentions for you SMCians out there….. It will be a special day for you in my prayers…. can you join me on this? and pray for the Brothers, too.

As of now, I am in Davao undergoing the orientation and preparation program for mission in Asia… as where will I be particularly be sent, that we are discerning. There are 10 of us Brothers (3 Brazilians, 2 Indians, 1 mexican, 1 colombian, 1 spanish, 1 from ghana and myself). The Program will end on December and we will go back to our own home country to process our credentials and finally say “goodbye” to our “beloveds”…. family, friends, etc. It will be a difficult experience but your prayers will help us…. these will be new mission countries…. so pray for us…. if you wanted to know moreabout the program i just mentioned, you can go to the links…. so, can you be with us in this crucial moment of our lives?

I hope you will continue to send us your simple…hmmmmm…. “hello’…. that will help keep the marist spirit alive….hehehe….
