Visit of Fr. Raphael Ma, CR – Part 2

Canadians are sometimes surprised to find out that there are Resurrection Sisters in the world. They share the same charism of our Founders. They are mostly located in the U.S.A., Poland, Australia, and mostly recently in Tanzania. Their formation house is in Buturu, which is about a 20-minute drive from our Butiama parish. We are always happy to visit them, and they are always happy to see us!

Sr. Ewelina is quite the “farmer,” raising chickens and rabbits. Fr. Raphael might get some ideas about raising some rabbits at St. Mary’s Parish in Kitchener.

Back at the novitiate, Fr. Raphael sampled ugali and “helped” the novices in their farming.

As Fr. Raphael’s journey continues, we enjoy another beautiful sunset in Tanzania.

Next issue: something was also happening at the same time in Morogoro!
