What is it about the Jesuits and the work they do?
Once a month at the Irish embassy in Lusaka there is a coffee morning for all the staff. Yesterday was a special occasion to support a charity that helps homeless children. To highlight the special day people were invited to walk about in the embassy garden barefoot. It was great fun under the African sun.
A member of the staff, who is from Lusaka, told me that the well-known Fr Michael Kelly taught her history at the University of Lusaka.
Fr Kelly, now an elderly man, is renowned for the work he has done in Zambia and for his fight in the battle against HIV & Aids.
The young staff member spoke in glowing terms of Fr Kelly and his knowledge of Zambia.
