KUCOVE, TIRANA AND SOCIAL MEDIA TRAINING.

17 MAY 2012 KUCOVE, TIRANA AND SOCIAL MEDIA TRAINING. Today, we have a return to winter weather - heavy hailstones and rain! Our temperature is 9 degrees. It's time to say - "A wet and windy May, fills the barn with corn and hay"! Saturday last was really hot in Tirana - so very different to Korce. The roses had finished blooming! We had our URAT meeting at the Cathedral. Towards the end, we were joined by Mons. George Frendo, Maltese, Auxiliary Bishop. He is our link person in relation to the pre-Olympic Liturgy. Hopefully, an event that will be well supported in June. On Sunday we had an Italian priest from Kucove. He was accompanied by two Sisters(Filipinos) and three Italian friends. We invited them here for coffee and so we had a nice group, plus an American friend, Laurie. In fact, I was on my own as Lalini was at a youth meeting. Our week since has been one of classes and meetings and, thank God, all is well. Lalini and I go to Tirana tomorrow. we gather for our Social Media Training before 9.00a.m. on Saturday! It would not be possible for us to arrive as early as that when travelling by public transport. This means we will miss the Prize-Giving Evening at Preca College. Instead, we plan to see Sisters Mirjam and Amira. So, an early wish for the weekend,especially for Ascension Day. Yesterday, I was saying "Happy Birthday" to a young man whose Ordination to Priesthood takes place on Sunday next - a beautiful feast for the ceremony. Every blessing for the weekend!
