My not-quite-weekly Missive – November 5th, 2013

By / Monday Missive / 2 Comments /

Hi Fighter, Forgive my prolonged silence. I’m afraid I’ve just had my head down lately, struggling with balancing my commitments to the church, the youth centre, the fight club, the campsite, my websites and my family. Things are plenty busy at the moment as we get into the lead-up to Christmas. Even so, I’m gulping […]

Hi Fighter, I’m writing to you from the lovely town of Narooma on our state’s south coast. Our family is taking a few days off at Ange’s partents’ house and, as you can see from the pic below, the children are out frolicking in the sunshine and enjoying the great outdoors! I’m afraid that since

[imaioVideo v=1] Speaking at the “Hands Off Syria” rally in Sydney (if you can’t view this video, click here)  Hi there Fighter, It’s been a dramatic week! While America prepares to unleash hell on Syria, Australia has elected a new government that promises to make life hell for asylum seekers! We live in dark times

Hi Fighter, Are we on the eve of Armageddon? It’s Father Dave, and I confess that as I write to you today I’m feeling sick in my stomach. It’s not something that I ate or drank (though I have had a second glass of red tonight to steel my nerves). It’s Syria, and it’s what

Hi Fighter, I hope you’ve been travelling well since last we touched base. It’s been a period of highs and lows for me. In terms of what’s been happening in our little hamlet of Dulwich Hill, it’s been almost all highs. In terms of what I’ve seen going on in other parts of the world (such

G’day Fighter, Let me begin today with a big thank you to everyone who responded to my job offer last week. Thank you for the emails. Thank you for the phone calls. Thank you for the prayers. It was wonderful to have people making contact from around the globe, ready to make the big trip down-under.

G’day Fighter, You’ll have to forgive me if this week’s missive reads more like a ‘positions vacant‘ ad, but we need some help over here at Fighting Fathers Headquarters and I’ve decided to put out a world-wide appeal. Position(s) Vacant The Good Lord has somebody in mind for this position, I am sure. Maybe they’re here

G’day Fighter, Father Dave here after a fantastic week where I got to meet two of my heroes!  Yes, there they are below: Dr Chandra Muzaffar and George Galloway! I met up with Chandra last Tuesday in his offices in Kuala Lumper. Denning and I were there as a part of Mother Agnes’ team –

G’day Fighter, Father Dave back with you – a little weary but strong in spirit.  I seem to have been spending all my time travelling and speaking since last we spoke. I spoke to a Lions Club gathering, hoping to raise more funds for our youth work. I spoke to at a gathing of the

Hi Fighter, I’m beginning this missive from a small room in a monastery on the outskirts of Canberra. Yes, I’m in the nation’s capital today and tomorrow, accompanying Mother Agnes as she appeals to Australian political leaders not to fuel the fire in Syria. I don’t know how closely you’ve been following developments in Syria
