Monday Missive – May 13th, 2013

Hi Fighter, I left Syria yesterday and, quite frankly, the days spent there were amongst the most intense and meaningful of my life! I sensed as I crossed the border into Lebanon that I had left some of my heart behind in Damascus! I’m afraid I was a right pain to those I sat next […]

Monday Missive – April 29th, 2013

Hi Fighter, I’m going to try to be brief, as I leave for Syria today.  This last week has been one of constant activity and high emotion for me – most of which, of course, has revolved around the burning of our Youth Centre. The community support has been overwhelming. I have received literally hundreds

Monday Missive – April 22nd, 2013

Hi Fighter, I’m afraid this is going to be a single-issue missive.  I had planned to tell you more about our trip to Syria next week and about plans for the next Boot Camp and a whole variety of other things, but I’m afraid everything was turned upside-down for us on Sunday morning when a fire

Monday Missive – April 15th, 2013

Hi Fighter, You’ll have to forgive me if today’s missive reads more like a campaign letter but I want to devote my energies today to a membership drive for the Wikileaks Party! Become a Foundation Member of the Wikileaks Party!  I assume that everyone knows who Julian Assange is and what Wikileaks is about. If you

Monday Missive – April 8th, 2013

Hi Fighter, It’s Father Dave back with you and I must tell you that I’ve had a very full and exciting week,  climaxing in the fourth birthday of my youngest daughter, Francesca, last Saturday!  Having been blessed with four children, I’ve been through the whole turning 4 experience a few times now, and yet the

Monday Missive – April 1st, 2013

HI Fighter, Father Dave here and again I’m a day late with my Monday Missive, but this week it’s deliberate! I figured that it would be a bit silly to broadcast my Easter sermon two weeks after Easter, and I didn’t think it right to urge Denning to work on the video on a public holiday

Monday Missive – March 25th, 2013

Hi Fighter, It’s Father Dave back with you – a little worn and weary after our explosive Boot Camp weekend at Binacrombi – but feeling very much alive!  It was a magnificent experience! I don’t want to get too carried away but I could eulogize on the joys of the weekend for a few missives if I allowed

Monday Missive – March18th, 2013

Hi Fighter, I hope you’re having a good week. This last week for me has been one of great highs and lows (and not much in between). One of the highs was tonight! Ange and I had the opportunity to go and hear an address from Ed Bearss – one of the world’s greatest historians on

Monday Missive – March11th, 2013

Hi Fighter, It’s Father Dave back with you again, and I must confess that I’m feeling a little tired and overwhelmed this week. I’m anxious about the Boot Camp. As you’ll remember, our Boot Camp is scheduled for two weekends’ time – March 22 to 24.  We are pouring a great deal of time and

Monday Missive – March 4th, 2013

Hi Fighter, It’s Father Dave back with you again, and I’m a little soggy and deflated this week! I was planning on showcasing a series of wonderful pics for you this week – pics from our church weekend in the bush: go-karting swimming caving toasting marshmellows Unfortunately the whole event got washed out! As Fighting
