Kennedy Road Burns Again

| |

Two weeks ago hundreds were left homeless and robbed of all their possessions by a fire at the Kennedy Road settlement. There was another fire at the Kennedy Road settlement today – the 6th this year.

No one was hurt and people managed to bring it under control quite quickly. The fire brigade, as they always do these days, arrived quickly and put out the remaining blaze. They worked with the community and worked effectively and bravely (fighting shack fires is quite dangerous as gas cylinders blow up unexpectedly in large balls of flame).

Letter from Jacques Depelchin in response to Fillipo Mondini

Dearest People,

I could not resist responding to your statement. In particular the words about helping the Church being the Church. It is also teaching the politicians that politics is completely different from their politics.

Thank you for showing the entire world that the poor do count even more than the rich might ever have guessed. Thank you for showing that humanity as seen, felt, breathed by any living body, poor, rich, sick, well, wounded, must be respected, nurtured as though it was a jewel.

Thank you for reminding those in power that power can blind so badly that it could easily lead them to kill without knowing what they are doing.
