It`s certainly worth thinking about.<BR/><BR/>We all have to try and respond to whatever and wherever God is leading us. And, in responding honestly to that call, we will find a joy and a peace that sustains us in all weathers. We are living in a real time of commissioning and "raising up" of new apostles and apostolates.<BR/><BR/>It would be well worth taking some quiet time out and having a good listen. As the adverts say: "you`re worth it".<BR/><BR/>(Mind you, if I were Fr Richard I`d seriously ditch the boat and book a plane ticket. I`m sure that is not in God's plan for him at all.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3460768490431892231.post-74310224405086999452008-07-21T23:13:00.000+00:002008-07-21T23:13:00.000+00:00Dear Fr Richard,I greatly regret your departure fo...Dear Fr Richard,<BR/><BR/>I greatly regret your departure for Australia; the Church in this country badly needs priests with your zeal and your insight into what is truly needed. My impression (from two visits to the country) is that the Church in Australia is in a far sounder condition than the Church here. So much so that we could do with one or two Australian priests moving over here (not least the President of Campion College!)<BR/><BR/>Luke.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3460768490431892231.post-34424906083875997592008-07-21T17:52:00.000+00:002008-07-21T17:52:00.000+00:00Fr Richard.

Not many young people are fans of Roger Whittaker.<BR/><BR/>Also, isn`t it less expensive to fly to Australia these days ?<BR/><BR/>However, those observations made, I wish you all the best. (If you make it, in that rather dodgy looking boat. Have you checked out www.quantas.co.uk..... ? We really can`t afford to lose any more priests. Please.)bernadettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10372364893458254021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3460768490431892231.post-58923003788053280312008-07-18T00:16:00.000+00:002008-07-18T00:16:00.000+00:00Congratulations!
