![]() In the midst of the examination time we had a community celebration of Br Anthony’s birthday. We began such feast with an Evening Mass with Vespers. As we praised the Lord for the many gifts he has given us we acknowledged that the gift of Brother Anthony was a special one. A community is not a crowd but the space where each person is unique and important. There is no community without individuals but the individuals who sacrifice themselves for others and are committed to others create a community. As we prayed for Br Anthony, we thank God for this fine young Oblate who places the needs of others before his own needs. I was touched by Br Anthony’s prayer at Mass for all those good people who wished him on his birthday. There was so much simplicity in his prayer but it was also deep Christian prayer that doesn’t places one in the center of attention but directs the attention of everyone to Christ and other people. Later in the evening we gathered together again for some fraternal time which some who don’t believe in Jesus would call a party. Happy Birthday Br Anthony.
