 A month after returning from the December holiday, we were seated in a community meeting planning for the midterm break. Among many agendas for the meeting was our response to the chaos in the country, the inter-seminary, and the Allamano youth day. From the look of things, it was obvious that people were not as enthusiastic as they had been a month before.
A few weeks before, we had been taking our December exams, and the mood of holidays was high. The fact that the country’s general election was to be held that December made everybody’s morale high also. |

 The Catholic Church has completed 15 years in Mongolia, picking up many "lessons" for the future along the way.
"God has done great things for us, and we are glad!" Bishop Wenceslao Padilla, apostolic prefect of Ulaanbaatar, told UCA News recently.
The Filipino Immaculate Heart of Mary (CICM) prelate arrived with two confreres in 1992 to open the Mongolian mission, and the growth in the numbers of Church personnel and local Catholics since then is an obvious fact.
Today, 64 missioners from 18 countries belonging to nine Religious congregations and a Korean diocese, together with six lay missioners from three countries serve the local Church. |
