    1 JANUARY 2013 A WORD FROM THE PROVINCIAL Dear Confreres, 22001133!! We had a nice Family Feast celebration last week in Nsawam where we celebrated the following jubilees of our confreres: Henry Noordermeer – 50 77 55 yyeeaarrss years priesthood; B. Dan Berek – 25 years priesthood; Antonius Hibur – 25 years vows; Daniel Lenwah – 25 years vows. We also celebrated 25 years in vows of our Sisters: Kamila Kubiak and Cecilia Boateng.. ooff This time the confreres came in very early on the 24th, especially the young ones. Many Sisters also came early. The number of confreres and sisters present for this Family Feast was probably the highest so far. It was a very SSVVDD meaningful celebration. Fr. Lenwah was the main celebrant for the Mass and Fr. Dan Berek preached on mission. Our congratulations again to all the MM iissssiioonnaarryy jubilarians. Talking about jubilees, the Archdiocese of Accra is remembering the first missionaries’ arrival in Greater Accra 120 years ago. The SMA Missionaries landed in Accra 120 years ago and handed over the mission to the SVD after AA ccttiivviittyy our arrival in 1938. All of us are invited for this celebration on 31st January for a solemn High Mass presided over by the Apostolic Nuncio to Ghana in and concelebrated by the SMA and SVD Provincials and other priests. It will in be held in the CFAO car park. Being a very historic event, please do your very best to be present for this very solemn occasion. As we have already written to you, there will be a province visitation from GGhhaannaa 17th April to 15th May.

He graduated into Infantry and served operationally in Malaya, Borneo, Papua New Guinea and Vietnam, where he was awarded the Military Cross and the South Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry. After command of all combat elements of the Army from platoon to division – including the Special Air Service Regiment – he retired in 1993 to assume the appointment of Governor of Western Australia, which he held for almost seven years.

On his retirement as Governor in 2000 he established in Perth, a not for profit strategic research institute – Future Directions International (FDI) – whose objective is to examine longer term issues facing Australia. On 20 December 2000 he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Technology by Curtin University. On 11 August 2003 he was sworn in as the twenty-fourth Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia, serving in that capacity until 5 September 2008.

Think about the things that you did out of a sense of personal ownership or responsibility. Maybe you pulled some weeds. Maybe you washed your car. Hopefully you brushed your teeth. Now, think about those things You did out of a sense of gratitude and joy. Maybe you called an old friend. Maybe you treated your child/grandchild to ice cream. Maybe you whispered a prayer of thanks as you feel asleep in bed. Finally, think about those things You did this week to prove yourself or be accepted. Maybe you kept quiet when people were telling lies. Maybe you volunteered for a job that you hate. Maybe you signed up for a class When your schedule is already too full. How did you spend most of your time this past week? Did you spend most of your time you sharing joy or acting responsible, Or were you trying to prove yourself?
