2014

Greetings to you all!

Taking this opportunity to wish you all a rich and rewarding New Year. We often feel part of a very uncertain world: some of us jump at the challenge of making our way and fulfilling our dreams. Others feel even more insecure and fragile. Yet others are bemused and sometimes paralyzed by the demands of our information society and the number of choices with which we are faced.

May this new year help us all to focus on the important and not just the urgent. And to accept our fragility as proof of our humanity - a grace and not a handicap. God accepted our human fragility when he came to live among us : he supports us in our fragility through the comforting presence of the Holy Spirit.

My year started with a bang! After an invigorating 2-week visit from my sister for Christmas, we flew back to Australia together to surprise our Dad for his 80th birthday. It's been a very special time and we are all grateful for the chance to be together once again. The only down side was that my husband and children couldn't be there.
