Dear friends,
Sad news for us, Happy news for the St Francis Parish in Apeldoorn-Twello:
Fr Henri, founding father and driving force of our ICC will be leaving us: cardinal Eijk has appealed him to accept a new appointment in Apeldoorn-Twello, about 45 km from Wageningen. As of January 1, he will be the parish priest of the St Francis parish.
Sad news for us, since we have to say goodbye, and so at the same time, happy news for the parish of Saint Francis, because they can enjoy the presence of our energetic, inspiring missionary and shepherd.
It is not yet known who will be his successor; however, we hope he can count on the hospitality we learned from Fr Henri and from each other.
Let us congratulate Fr Henri with his new appointment.
Let us pray that that his move will go well and that his new parish will bring him even more joy than ours! ;o)
In the meantime, let us enjoy his presence while he is still in Wageningen !
For your agenda (don't forget!):
On Sunday January 8 there will be a special celebration to say goodbye to Fr Henri.
