It’s Peru!

It was great to hear today that my assignment with the St James’ Society will be to Peru. They say there’s a lot in a name even if when I was named after St Martin de Porres nobody would have guessed I would be working in or around his home city!



Happily I will be working in the same country as three other English priest friends: Fr Kevin Dring is working in the North of the Country, Fr Joe Plumb is working in the Amazonian Eastern region and Fr Darren Reid near Lima. There are currently 17 priests from the Society serving in Peru and I am looking forward to working alongside them in the time ahead. My final destination will probably be decided when I have had a chance to see the current possibilities and meet those working in the various parishes.
