September began well with a visit from Marje & Piet Steyn on the 3rd and continued less well with another visit to the dentist for an extraction on the 5th.
Most of the last 2 weeks of the month were spent with the SPB Sisters at Masite in Lesotho. This gave me the chance to daily say the Mass and preach. The 19th was the Dedication Festival of their Chapel of Our Lady of Perpetual Mercy. With the co-operation of Fr Robert Stretton SSM from Maseru and the Revd Hilary Murphy from Bleomfontein, we produced an article and pictures on SPB for the Southern Anglican magazine. With much difficulty I managed to email this to the magazine in Cape Town (IT is not Lesotho’s strong point).
October 4th is St Francis’ Day which I’m transferring to Wednesday when I can celebrate and preach at St Margaret’s.
October is also Stewardship month at St Margaret’s. I get to preach and celebrate at the services on the 16th.
My back gets fractionally better day by day and the tinnitus remains much the same. Otherwise well.
We’ve had some rain but could do with lots more. Hot one day & cold the next.
The pics are of some of the Sisters at Masite.
