Nazareth House Apostolate

In many of the photos that I receive from James, I see Kadijah in the outfits that I have left behind from various visits to Sierra Leone. Everyone at St. Laurence House is extremely thrifty and makes best use of what they have and what is given to them. Kadijah has quite the fashion sense and from time to time, she picks out material and has an outfit made. This is most economical way to buy new clothes. Your outfit is custom made (one of a kind) and it stimulates the local economy. The tailor that she uses is exceptionally talented and has even made a Cassock/Alb for Fr. Seraphim which cost us 1/10th of what the God Shops such as CM Almy charge. The quality is better than anything we can purchase store-bought in America or anywhere.

James says they have noticed some improvement in Jodie’s condition but were unable (due to the pending weekend) to get her into a doctor’s office on Friday. We, in the West, much of the time, do not realize how lucky we are to be able to go to a doctor’s office and actually be seen by a doctor! This is not the case in Sierra Leone, where there are but one doctor to 1000 (or more) patients each day, or no available facilities for medical treatment.

This just as the morning Mass closes, the sunrise is fully active. Pinks, Purples and Blues streaking across the sky. Its beautiful. They say it may rain today, but there is no evidence at the moment.

Saturdays at Grace Church begin the preparations for Sunday. The chores are done, parish hall cleaned, flowers placed on the altar and around the icons – those things that people notice but believe are miraculously accomplished. Thank God (as it happens in most parishes) for the faithful few that tirelessly tend to this week after week.
