A good pastor, a pastor after the heart of God, is the greatest treasure that the good God can give to a parish, and one of the most precious gifts of divine mercy…Oh how great is the priesthood!” (St John Vianney, the holy Curé d’Ars).

As I stood watching the many young people who joined His Grace on Sunday, January 13, at his Vocations “Lime” at Archbishop’s House, I prayed that the Lord of the harvest would send out more labourers into his harvest (Mt 9:37). I thank God for sending us faithful priests. One such priest was Fr Henry Charles who passed away on Jan 15, and whose life we celebrate.
