A note from Father Michael
I am still alive and the school is in full swing and no sisters but we are opening two churches this month with the coming of the bishop and we hope to start three more permanent chapels where the Christians built walls and and we need to put on roofs enforce the walls and put in a metal door. I have the money for three but have a fourth waiting when I get funds.
Michael
