Today, the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, is my 20th Anniversary of Ordination. I will never forget that era of my life, between the ages of 19 and 21, when I was receiving my vocation to the Priesthood. Twenty years after ordination and I am so pleased to be a priest at the time when the Church is beginning to embrace a genuine Liturgical reform. But above all, I am overtaken by the awareness that my task in life is to be a priest of the New Evangelisation. Please pray for me, that I will be able to totally embrace my calling.Wednesday, 16 July 2008
