Please Pray for Fr. Peter and his Seminarians.


Below is a E-Mail that was sent by Father Peter Kamai to his friend Maureen in the USA in regards to the situation in Jos.-Fr. Peter pictured here celebrating Mass at Saint James Church in Medjugorje in September of 2008.


Hi Maureen, Greetings from Jos, Nigeria and many thanks for the concern. Its really bad here! Over five hundred have been killed in what is now seemingly a religious riot. Our Seminary is under siege up to now. It seems their intention is to destroy it. Already the Monastery which is next to us has been torched; their library and other buildings have been destroyed. I really dont know what the moslems are up to but its really bad. At the moment we can not come out. They have barricaded the seminary and who knows what their next plan of action is? Maureen pray for us that this mayhem will come to an end. The times are hard!!! Regards to all. - Fr. Peter
