Life is indeed full of surprises and as it enfolds, we can’t help but be thankful to the Lord, as He is the one providing us all these graces. Our dear Fr. Adam and Fr. Gunther have just celebrated their birthday with so many unforgettable events, catching both of them in total surprise. Fr. Adam who has just turned 40 remains so vibrant and energetic.  His presence   in the community is always a gift as he makes everyone feels so welcomed through his very simple and caring personality.  He is always a hands-on priest and formator.

His 40^th birthday on December 15 gave everyone in the community together with the Father Jordan Youth and our friends in the village the opportunity to thank him as well as Father Gunther through various presentations and wonderful surprises.  Fr. Gunther celebrated his birthday on December 17.  The program for both of them was held on December 16 with a special “dark light skit” presentation from the brothers organized by Bro. Clement along with Ma’am Lerma and Ma’am Bamba. The story tells of a tree who is very willing to give all that he has to a certain boy who turned a man and soon an old one, asking anything from the tree until it can’t give no more but its cut-body for the boy-turned-old man to rest.  This presentation was specially offered to Fr. Adam and Fr. Gunther whose generosity and availability makes them dependable and dear priests in the community.

Cheers to Fr. Adam and Fr. Gunther! May you be blessed always by our Divine Savior with more years and good health to serve him more in his vineyard as holy Salvatorian Priests.
