Dear Friends
Last
Sunday after my Chinese Mass at Our Lady of Lourdes Church, Chi Fu,
as I left the Church I noticed an African man waiting for the next Mass, an
English Mass.
Being
a friendly Australian....and sensing he was new to the place...I said hello
...and we started talking. I gave him my little "Doctor Jesus" book as
a name card
(it has my details on back page) and then my eyes lit up when he gave me his
name card:
he's a consul at an African consulate general in HK! And that
country has many inmates in HK's prisons.
We
said goodbye and I went to my next Mass...at St Anthony's, Pokfulam.
After Mass there was a phone call from the consul "How about lunch with me
and my wife
at my home"
Consul:
really friendly, faith-filled....hoping he can attend my Friday prayer service
at Lai Chi Kok
....usually about 20 Africans in the group of 30-40
Wife: really good cook! (and a university professor!)
Moral of the story: say hello to strangers in church!
------
Today's
English editorial in the Ming Pao newspaper (HK),
"Forensic Investigation into Li Wangyang's Death Unconvincing"
and my recording of same,
can
be accessed here from midday HK time today to mid-evening HK time
tonight
On this
17th of the month,
Jesus please bless
the people of Shaanxi
(Please join me in praying for one
part of China each day of the month)
My Bible Plan for today = Please join me in using these
readings for
strength to face the trials of each day
Thank you for a prayer
God bless!
