Nairobi, 2 January 2012Daughters of Saint Paul Nairobi Kenya,
I would like to thank you for the good printing work of the new Roman Missal. In a week time we will use it in Kenya, and I am looking forward to that day. I am grateful for the work you have done so far.
This will help many people to attend mass with more piety, and I consider myself the first beneficiary. I will celebrate mass with more piety… and O guess that the faithful will appreciate it very much.
I can read very well because the font is very good and the order of the different parts and rubrics are clear and clean.
Thank you very much.
Fr. Edward Diez-Caballero

Mark 1:14-20
At the beginning of his book Mark presents Jesus as herald, proclaiming the Good News that will be a source of joy everywhere.
To welcome the gospel of God (Mk 1:14), we must Repent, and believe in the gospel (Mk 1:15). Repentance (conversion) implies a complete change in our way of thinking. Our logic puts our own self-interest first, but when we are converted we must begin to think according to God’s logic, and place the needs of others at the centre of our attention....
