By arriving a few days before the large meetings, team members could reconnect with their friends from earlier visits. Pray for Fr. John who is hospitalized with a stroke. The Bishop was happy to meet with the team on Saturday and showed the Kola Nut. This story telling tradition helps to strengthen the shared history among friends. The local Education Committee met with the Archdiocesan Team in the afternoon to review the schedule and presentations for the following weeks.
