Today Mr. Paul O’Callaghan, the CEO of Caritas Australia, came to visit the Deaf Development Programme in Phnom Penh.  Caritas Australia has supported DDP for quite a few years but Paul had not had a chance to visit us until today.  This evening we took a dinner cruise on the Mekong River and Paul spoke to staff and leaders of Caritas and of the organizations they fund.

Today when I had mass for the Salesian Sisters at their Teuk Thla community, I was surprised to see there Mabel Chan who was formerly a Maryknoll Lay Missioner in Tanzania.  Mabel has now committed to one year of service as a volunteer at  the sisters’ vocational school.
