The January/February edition of the Africa magazine is out now!

 

Anne Cowley continues her series The Hare’s Corner, with an article entitled "Biodiversity Blues". She gives us a stark reminder that biodiversity loss requires urgent and transformative change in our food, energy and finance systems… and in how we, as individuals, live our lives.

 

Fr Donal Dorr sheds new light on the Beatitude which hails those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied. He shares the story of a prophetic Sister of St Louis called Miriam Thérèse O’Brien (1945-2006) who lived out this Beatitude in an extraordinary manner during her life. 

 

Frs Henry Abinya and Limo Soter reflect on their experiences of Christian Unity in the Prelature of Tefé in the Amazon Basin. They believe that it is by reaching out, listening and engaging in dialogue that progress can be made in the pursuit of Christian Unity.

 

It is fitting that in this edition we have a poem about St Brigid from poet Monica Corish. The title is simple: The Song of Brigid.

​

I wish you all a very joyful and peaceful 2025. Happy reading!
