Letter from Fr Taylor

Dear Lindsay, 

We looked in horror as we saw the devastation that the fires in Australia caused to so many lives. There are no words to express our deepest grief on what has happened and how it seemed to be endless in it’s ferocity that gives a like hell experience. 

I know that recovery will be very slow and all the resources must go to the stricken families and communities our prayers are with you. 

I have been alone here since September as Fr Martin from Kenya had to go home for foot surgery. 

He is now back so I can begin to hang up my boots!

I have retired from all building projects and now have a group of parishioners looking after the maintenance work - a work in progress but will be operational in March and I can let go ! !

My Golden Jubilee in on Easter Sunday but I will celebrate with the feast day of St Kizito on 7June. Later I will celebrate in Ireland.

I am now moving towards retirement in Ireland in 2020-waiting for a new challenge!!

No golf for 6 months now, I seem always to be busy but will try to get out for a game this month! All change!!

The parish is good. We had to put a new wing on the Maria Mthundizi, Our Lady H of C, to accommodate the growing numbers an extra 200, and still many are outside! 

Overflowing in faith.

I can send some photos of the extensions and some other ones. We seem on the same track with Golden Jubilees and retirement tracks. 

Wishing you God’s blessing for 2020. 

Greetings to the Malawi Support Group 

Frank 

PS  Maybe 2020 will be a good time to complete the Malawi Support Group as we both move on?
