Dear Fr. John & Parishioners
Greetings of peace & love to all of you.
Thank you so very much for the tremendous welcome you gave
me when I visited Farranree. The brothers in Kenya and Uganda and
the people among whom we work, will be thrilled to know of your
great concern for them and your tremendous generosity. It will be
a great boost to them in these hard times.
Often we come across difficulties too great for human heads and
hands. It is then that we depend on your prayers and the power of our
loving God. We will be good guardians of the huge trust you have
placed in us. We will use your resources wisely and efficiently.
I have little to offer in return for your tremendous kindness and
generosity, except to let you know that you are remembered in the
daily prayers of the brothers. You and your families will be remembered
with a climb of Croagh Patrick, a pilgrimage to Clonmacnoise and a
small fast.
Sincerely
Br. Brian Johnson OSF
