 In the third edition of our Constitutions signed by Our General Superior, Fr. Aquiléo FIORENTINI, IMC, Prot. n. 34/06; Rome, June 20, 2006 in number 26.2, it is said: “Every missionary should cooperate to bring about unity and should avoid attitudes that are individualistic and contrary to community plans.” Six years ago when our current regional Superior, Rev. Fr. Antonio Vismara, was the rector of Allamano House in Nairobi, he made a very deep, meditative and constructive reflection on community life. I do personally find it important to share with you. Here it is. “Love in a community greatly depends on the attention people give to each other in their daily life. At the beginning, a person joining a community is genuine, open to the others, available and free of prejudices. |

 Mozambique's effort to become the first of the world's major mine-contaminated countries to be declared mine-free is faltering on the home straight. There are a variety of reasons: Mozambique's donor-dependent government no longer sees demining operations as a priority; the withdrawal of humanitarian demining operations, sending the wrong signals to donors that the job was done, and that the focus of global demining activities has largely shifted to Iraq and Afghanistan. |

 In his address to the members of the Congregation for the Clergy announcing the Year of the Priest, on March 16, the Sovereign Pontiff, Benedict XVI explained what it means for the priest to live out his vocation in the midst of and at the service of the Church. He said that the priest’s mission is carried out in the Church. Therefore, ecclesial, communal, hierarchical and doctrinal dimensions are absolutely indispensable to every authentic mission and alone are guarantees its spiritual effectiveness. The four aspects mentioned must always be recognized as intimately connected. The mission is ecclesial because no one proclaims himself in the first person. |

 Muslims have been ordered to withdraw their children from Catholic-run schools in protest at the church's Hijab ban.
Sheikh Mohammed Dor said the church's action was provocative and could spark Muslim anger in the country.
"From Monday, I would like all Muslims to withdraw their children from Catholic schools and take them elsewhere," he declared. |
