My brother-in-law Bodie and I are heading to the British Embassy tomorrow to apply for our UK visas so we can attend International Week 2009 at Holy Trinity Brompton. As many of my longtime readers know, I have been involved with the Alpha Course for quite some time now, and thanks largely to the tireless work of our Lord's laborers, we have made tremendous gains in the Philippines.
Recently, Dr. Benie A. Sy gleefully recounted to me over the phone Archbishop Antonio Ledesma's moving meditation on the need for reevangelization and dialogue amongst Christians in Mindanao. I had not finished luxuriating in this very positive development when Pastor Grace Santos called me to express her joy at the way the Alpha Course has brought many people to know Christ in her church. She had just visited Benie in Mindanao, and reaffirmed her commitment to our Lord's work through the Alpha Course.
It's almost enough to make me want to celebrate with a cold one. From the looks of things, I'll be happily recreating the picture above (taken in 2007) with friends in London this year.
God is good!
