St Anthony’s Music Ministry (background)
leads the praise and worship as diners greet each other.
As a person of faith, often times I had
gotten accustomed to the routine of my prayer life—daily prayer until Sunday
Mass so the routine continues.
When Couples for Christ (CFC) began
promoting their second annual Praise Breakfast at St Benet’s Hall, I got
excited.
I had attended the inaugural event and
remembered the excitement and energy of it all and the scrumptious breakfast.
Most of all I remembered the opportunity
to sing out my praises with my dad, aunt, and best friends right around me.
And this time it was Pentecost weekend…
papayo!
Time to praise! I organised myself to be
available and present.
On arrival, my dad and I were greeted
with the usual warmth and friendliness that CFC has a special way of
delivering.
Soon we were invited to get our
breakfast which was just as delicious as it was the year before with tomato
choka, saltfish, coconut bake, puffs, cupcakes, juice, tea or coffee.
Abbot John Pereira OSB opened the
morning’s proceedings and prayed with us inviting the work of the Holy Spirit
to begin; and as the seats filled, the joy of community (and a tasty meal)
permeated St Benet’s Hall.
Then the St Anthony’s Music Ministry of
Point Fortin began to minister through praise and worship—truly we all immersed
ourselves in the love of the Holy Spirit that, while always present, resonates
in a unique way through music.
During their ministering they invited
each person to come up to be lifted up in prayer.
This was different from last year and I
must admit I remained content to stay seated and to sing in prayer in my spot.
Once again with that special CFC love,
one of the couples came and gently invited me to go up.
It’s amazing that God knows our needs
better than we know them ourselves.
Or rather it’s amazing how often I
forget that God knows me through and through and will pour out His anointing
even when I didn’t ask.
The food, the praise and intercession
made a morning that was very good.
I look forward to 2020. —Rica Charles

Hola Laszlo,
It seems to be very bad for Venezuelans
at home and also those who fled the country.
Hopefully the situation at home will
improve and could allow refugees to return home.
There are also Venezuelans in Guyana
near the Essequibo areas and God knows how they survive.
Best wishes and stay well.

Jan,
Your brother, Thijs and I were good
friends, and I’ve always been concerned about what caused him to develop cancer
and die.
You’ve previously mentioned that strange
pink cloud that seemed to cross Trinidad, and which seemed to coincide with
both Thijs and Brother Edward Theunissen contracting similar cancers at roughly
the same time.
The fact that they were both sitting on
top of the roof at MSB and may have been exposed to some form of radiation
should not be easily dismissed.
It deserves some investigation.
Could you, perhaps tell us anything more
about the approximate dates when both Thijs and Brother Edward were diagnosed
with cancer?
Could you also tell us the date of which
Thijs died?
And perhaps Abbot Pereira might be able
to let us know when Brother Edward died as well?
The internet reports that France carried
out significant nuclear testing in French Polynesia (and especially on the
Morrow Atoll) between June 1966 and 1996.
I do not know whether wind currents etc.
would have been able to send radioactive clouds from Polynesia over to
Trinidad, but that COULD have happened, since, reportedly, in 1983, the
volcanic eruption of Krakatoa seems to have spread ashes and clouds for a
number of years across most of the globe.
Perhaps a researcher into the Newspapers
of 1966 might have some reference to the unique clod which supposedly blew over
Trinidad.
I’ve forwarded this email to both Abbot
Pereira and Gabe Faria, to request their additional individual comments.
An interesting discussion.
Nigel

One last idea; An explosion and ensuing
major fire at a refinery and/or oil&gas field in the south of Trinidad.
Blessings,

Thanks, Jan,
I look forward to receiving them from
time to time, as you can work on them.
That is a very sad story about your
brothers.
I never heard of such a thing as a
poisoned explosive cloud over Trinidad in the 1950s.
It would have had to come from the oil
refinery, but there was no story about it in later years as I became an adult.
Best,
Don

Hi, George,
I think Jan was trying to say the cloud
he saw was similar to one of the “arms” in the picture of the Challenger
disaster that he pasted in.
Think of the meteorology of the
area.
The trade winds blow across the Atlantic
all year long.
In the winter it comes from the
north-east, out of Siberia.
In the summer, the wind comes out of the
south-east, out of Africa.
There is no way a cloud could in normal
circumstance blow to Mount in the north of Trinidad from San Fernando in the
south.
East of Mount is mainly forested
hills.
No pollution comes to Mount from
there.
Besides, it would have messed up Port-of-Spain,
which everyone would have noticed.
It does not seem to me that there could
have been any connection between that cloud and the premature deaths of the
Koenraadt boys.
It sounds more likely, in my amateur
opinion, that it was a genetic inheritance that caused the cancers, and the
cloud was pure coincidence.
Best,
Don

Hey Jan,
The picture you shared is very similar
to those in 1986 of the Challenger disaster.
Wonder if it was the failure of some
kind of device in space back in 1966.
All the best,
George
Yes George, you are right, I copied the
picture from Google, it is the explosion of the Challenger.
But only to show what kind of cloud I
mean.
It was cot curly but in a straight line
from the horizon in the south right over the Abbey School.
If there was an equivalent of the www.delpher.nl site where you can search and read in old newspapers of Trinidad I
could go and look there but I don't know of any site like that over there.
Hope you enjoy it all, greetings, Jan

Hola
Ladislao,
´¿Cómo te fue el viaje
de vuelta? ¿Cómo siguen las cosas por allá?
AquÃ
estamos sudando la gota gorda hace más de 4 semanas ya que hace un calor
horrrrible!!!
Como
tuve que cambiar mi computador ya que tenÃa 9 años y “ cojeaba” demasiado, por
consejo de mi hijo me compré un HP 250, C15-7200, 8GB/240SSD, que es muchÃsimo
más
rápido pero vino con Windows 10 y yo habÃa estado acostumbrado a Windows 7 y
tuve que pasar muchas horas para aprender los cambios.
Al
cambiar el ordenador, también cambié mi e-mail que ahora es: csabajakobszen@gmail.com
Un
gran abrazo, buena salud y mucho éxito
Mary
Carmen y Csaba
How was your return trip? How do things
continue over there?
Here we are sweating the fat drop more
than 4 weeks ago since it is awful hot !!!
As I had to change my computer since I
was 9 years old and "limping" too much, on my son's advice I bought
an HP 250, C15-7200, 8GB / 240SSD, which is very much
faster but it came with Windows 10 and I
had been used to Windows 7 and I had to spend many hours to learn the changes.
When changing the computer, I also
changed my e-mail which is now: csabajakobszen@gmail.com
A big hug, good health and much success
