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

FIFTH SUNDAY OF ORDINARY TIME

05th February 2012
Mark 1:29-39
The Gospel today presents to us a typical day in the life of Jesus. Last Sunday’s Gospel showed us Jesus participating in the liturgical life of the community in the synagogue. Today we see him visiting a home to heal a sick woman and then curing many more people in the town. In the thick of all these activities Jesus withdraws to be alone with God in a quiet place and then moves on to other places to continue the proclamation of the Good News...
