Dear friends and family,
We found the five of them under a Mango tree last night,
to which we had been lead by bandits after a release deal was cut by their families.
We were the "guarantors" that the ransom given by their families would achieve their freedom.
(This is, in fact, almost never the case, until multiple ransoms are paid).
They were lucky enough to be part of a group enslaved for three month, instead of being killed.

We offer this prayer with shared sorrow, faith, and unrelenting hope.
A call to prayer: If I could be where you are~

Dear family and friends,
We are living in a dark age.
But as true as there is darkness, it is also wondrously true that there is light.
Read MoreLent is about learning the best way to suffer,
because we cannot avoid suffering,
and because suffering the wrong way can be very dangerous
Lent is about opening our eyes to our own destructive thinking, speaking, and acting,
because we can increase peace of mind, and peace on earth, by turning away from these.
We know this by our lived experience, and yet, we are dedicated. We have grit. We care.
Our motto is "If not me, who? If not now, when?"
I have had the chance to know many amazing people over 40 years of Passionist priesthood and 20 years as a physician, especially women, whose resilience is incredible. You often meet the most extraordinary people when you meet those who have suffered deeply in their lives.
