When Tragedy Becomes a Mission

Suffering is not proof that God has abandoned a person or family. Through the testimony of his sister's death and his mission in Rwanda, Fr Antony reflects on how Christ can turn tragedy into commissioning, family pain into intercession and a wounded past into a new beginning.
