A choise... a decision
At any given moment, life presents us with choices... a beautiful walk in nature, a celebration, a cruise. Everything seems wonderful and exciting. But we may also feel the call for an inner journey… an invitation to get moving.
Sowing Joy and Hope with the Help of Animals
Living in a school with animals is not common practice in Hong Kong. However, it’s what we’ve been doing since 2013, and more and more people are getting to know the animals at Good Hope School.

A Grain in the Earth
No matter how small, every grain thrown into the earth produces a harvest. Multiplied, it becomes food, brings comfort and saves lives. However, there is a requirement to this production: in the earth, this grain must die... (cf. Jn 12:24).
At the Heart of Solidarity
Times of crisis are turning points in people’s lives, both personal and social. A person may find in it an opportunity to grow and succeed, but the opposite is also true: the situation can lead to regression and frustration.
