Jubilee year Canada programme

Three days ago I arrived in Canada according to my sabbatical program. It means I will spend Christmas and New Year here in Toronto in my SVD community, exactly I stay in the Parish run by our SVD confreres. This Parish is very colorful, there quiet many different nationalities, the biggest number are Italians and  Portugal’s. for last two days I served the Italians community. I had already for them a funeral and Masses. Definitely my Italian is not very good, I need to  be undusted, and also I must learn again and again. Definitely comparing to Africa here is a different climate of Christmas. Two weeks ago the people already decorated their houses outside and inside, it looks like Christmas Vigil in some countries. Of course the shops are more than decorated. Slowly, slowly is getting cold, for Christmas there could be a snow. For me it is quite nice to have a white Christmas after many years. After New Year I would travel to London – a town in Canada to do my courses. I will stay there up to the end of April, then a short holiday, about two weeks and back to Zambia. This is my - the nearest program. My courses look to be interesting I need it after so many years in Africa. I hope we would be in contact.
