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 […]

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

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

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. Â We are pouring a great deal of time and

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

G’day Fighter. It’s Father Dave back with you again, and I’m feeling a bit sick and a bit annoyed this week. The fact that I’m a bit sick is a good sign actually because I’ve been a LOT sick over the last day or two, and have spent most of that time in bed! I

Hi Fighter, I’m going to try to be brief tonight. It’s gone midnight and I have an early start. It’s my birthday – that’s my excuse – and I’ve enjoyed a night out at the movies. We saw ‘Lincoln’ (no, not the one where he’s a vampire-slayer, the other one). It was a powerful movie

Hi Fighter, Yes, it’s Father Dave, and I’m still here! I’m still here in Sydney that is! I was supposed to be in Damascus today and I had anticipated filling today’s missive with pics of Damascus and Beirut. It was not to be! In case you missed my announcement on Friday, our Peace Mission to

Thank you to everyone for your prayers and support for our Peace Mission to Syria BUT we received word this morning that the mission has been postponed! Denning and I were scheduled to leave tomorrow afternoon. This is a real shock! The email sent to me and the other 15 delegates this morning reads: For

Hi Fighter, It’s Father Dave back with you again – coming to the end of an action-packed day (that culminated in a painfully long run) and savoring an action-packed week that included the long-awaited second stoush between Daniel Geale and Anthony Mundine. Geale v. Mundine If you were with me last week you’ll remember that
