UGANDA
FROM THE HEART
I  am  a  Comboni  Missionary,  Italian, and I have been working in
Uganda since 1995. AT present I am the novice- master here in
Namugongo, the place where  most of the Uganda Martyrs were killed.

Since 1992, when I was still a  theology  student  in  Austria, I have been
praying/ meditating in a way that  is  quite  similar  to the school of John
Main. At that time, I was introduced by a Jesuit priest, in Germany, called
Franz Jalics. Ever since, after  some  ups  and  downs of the first two
years, I have tried to remain faithful  to  it and now I can say that my way
of praying, thus my life has changed.  I have come to realise that it is high
time I begin to share with others  my  experience  and perhaps try to
start a meditation group here in Uganda (March 2004)

Thank  you for making known to the WCCM that here, in the heart of
Africa, in  'Pearl  of Africa', there is a small group (about 15 people), there
are hearts  that  are  'breathing' the Spirit that was specially spread by
John Main and other great spiritual writers.(January 2006)
