Online Recollection Oct 2020
The day of recollection is a time for prayer and reflection on some topics of our spiritual life.
The River and the Source - and Me
The late Dr. Margaret Ogola published what is perhaps her best known novel - The River and the Source - in 1994.

For me, however, that exam was the beginning - the source - of another continuing adventure.
