WYD: Meeting the delegation of the Diocese of Manzini (Swaziland)


Together with Bp Bucher (emeritus bishop of Bethlehem) and Card. Napier OFM (archdiocese of Durban) we went to the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception to join the South African delegation who was leading an hour of adoration in that parish in the name of the SACBC (Southern African Catholic Bishops' Conference). 

For us it was also our first experiencing taking the underground in Rio de Janeiro. Everyone is very helpful and makes sure we do not get lost. 

I had been able to contact the delegation coming from Swaziland to let them know about the prayer. Though they were staying far from the Basilica they did everything to be present.

The small group is putting Swaziland in the map. They shared with me something I have been experiencing... not many people know where Swaziland is, so everyone is curious, asks about the country and... yes! more photos!!!
