- What is your current ministry and your favorite part of?
I am at the East of Democratic Republic of Congo for six months out of the year to offer Bible lessons. The most I enjoy, it is to see how oppressed people are united and peacefully fight with determination for their rights, believing that the Lord is with them.
- Your favorite way to pray?
I prefer to pray in silence and darkness after meditating Scriptures or after having a full day.
- What is the best part of living in a community?
The best part of living in a community is being part of a family, receive corrections, orientations, and encouragement.
- What is the most fun you have had with your community?
I have promised to my community a special “frittata” (Italian scramble eggs) and my sisters were waiting for it. But when I cooked it, it was nothing special at all for them.
- What do you do for fun?
I love reading and be informed. I love history, geography, and sciences.
- Any nicknames?
In Bukavu (Congo), people call me “mwalimu” because my main job is teaching.
- Any words of wisdom for those considering missionary-religious life?
There is more joy in giving everything than in giving only a part. Poor people deserve your whole life. Do not look for a thousand experiences to go and see poor people in different parts of the world. Meet some of them. Then, fast a day, sleep on the street one night, and walk without money. This will help you to really know them.
