Bishop Olivier has quarterly meetings of all the priests in the Phnom Penh diocese and today it was a less formal, more social gathering.
After an opening prayer, Bishop Olivier led the group to a former hearing clinic that has been remodeled into offices for the vicariate staff.
Bishop Olivier introduced the staff and explained who would work from this new office center.
Then we had the official meeting but it was low key, noting so much that is going on in the vicariate.
Once we got into the dining room, Bishop Olivier recognized those having birthdays and other special occasions in the lives and ministries.
Under the Christmas tree in the dining room was a gift bag for each of the priests at the meeting with cookies and handicraft gifts from Bishop Olivier’s social enterprise in Takeo Province.
