Merry Christmas, and best wishes for 2012
By Francis Moran
As is often the case at this time of year, I am reminded of the tiny mission church pictured here. It is located in Roma, a rural village in Lesotho, a tiny country in southern Africa. Besides being the gateway to Lesotho’s majestic mountainous highlands, Roma is also home to both a long-standing Roman Catholic mission and the country’s national university.
And it’s where my family and I celebrated Christmas in 1968.
