Compliments of the seasons

Dear friends and readers of this blog,

even if the news coming out of Berlin, Ankara, Aleppo, USA and other parts of the world are either very sad or not encouraging at all – this time of the year remains special:

Christmas is a time to remind ourselves what is important in life: living it as a precious gift every day. Wherever you are, and whatever you believe in, just take a moment during this important time of the year and celebrate the unconditional love given to you by someone.

Merry Christmas – UKhisimusi omuhle – Moni Wa Chikondwelero Cha Kristmasi – عيد ميلاد مجيد – Vrolijk Kerstfeest – Joyeux Noël – Frohe Weihnachten – Καλά Χριστούγεννα – Zalig Kerstfeest – शुभ क्रिसमस – חג מולד שמח  – Buon Natale – Selamat Hari Natal – Maligayang Pasko – Feliz Natal – Geseënde Kersfees – Schöni Wiehnachte – Suk sarn warn Christmas – Izilokotho Ezihle Zamaholdeni –

For all those celebrating a different feast in these days – compliments of the seasons, but for all of you:

 Thanks also for all your support, love and friendship, be it towards the project HOPE Cape Town or to me personally.
For 2017 all blessings possible and many moments of the knowledge that we are all one in the divine mystery.

 Stefan

HIV, Development and HOPE – thoughts of a Catholic priest

Being a Roman - Catholic priest and working in the fields of HIV and social development in Africa has its challenges. You will find stories and reflections about my work, about the church, South Africa and Africa, about politics and whatever triggers my interest. You are most welcome to leave a comment or to get in touch with me. Blogging means to initiate thoughts and discussions and for the writer to formulate what is loosely running around in the heart and mind in need of being sorted and spoken out.
