“How do you parent a teenager?” A man on the other side of the call, said, even before introducing himself. “Who is this”, I asked. “This is your friend on your Facebook page.

She is full of herself. Very lazy. And the only time I see her smile is when I tell her ‘I am going to town, be a good…
Homily for Friday, Twentieth Week in Ordinary Time
Ez 37:1-14 Mt 22:34-40 The question that is put to Jesus in this morning’s gospel reading – ‘Which is the greatest commandment of the Law?’ – was with a view to disconcerting him.

If you are a sports enthusiast you know about a runner called Joshua Cheptegei, a maverick Uganda who is a talk of the world. He broke the World Record in 5000m track. Just Google his name. Few people may remember that on 27th March 2017, the same Joshua Cheptegei collapsed in front of the home crowd at Kololo, which had the first citizen, as a spectator!
