Mission: Down to Basics

Fr. Kevin Conroy is a Maryknoll associate priest like me–a diocesan priest on loan to Maryknoll.  We live together in Phnom Penh.  He is a doctor of psychology and has started a mobile mental health team that especially tries to find and work with mentally ill people who are chained up or put in cages (like the woman above) because their families and society don’t know what to do with them.  Read about his ministry in Maryknoll Magazine.

On the road again….

In two hours I head to the airport and to Maryknoll, New York for a meeting with the Maryknoll Lay Missioners.   I leave here Sunday morning, New York time, and arrive Monday night, New York time.  I had thought I would have a chance to post something more here before I go, but it looks now like I cannot add anything here until I get to New York.

Farewell to the Stantons

Cecilia Espinoza and Sam Stanton finished up their week in Cambodia with a dinner with the Maryknoll Lay Missioners team here.  (L-R): Dee Dungy, Cecilia Espinoza, Sami Scott, Maria Montello, Russ Brine, and Sam Stanton.  Missing: James Havey and Charlie Dittmeier was taking the picture.  The next morning the Stantons headed for the Philippines on their way back to the United States.
