This is the OLG blog for the One Book - One Parish Lenten reading program. As you read each week's suggested chapters in "My Life with the Saints" you will find reflection/discussion questions here. An integral part of a reading program is the discussion that grows from it. We look forward to your participation. "All of us are smarter than one of us." You can make this come true for our Lenten One Book - One Parish reading program.

1. What impressed you the most about the East African refugees? Why?
I am impressed that African Christians hold so closely to their faith that it becomes a confirmation for them in their poverty and persecution. It seems that their ability to rise above their circumstances, and work so hard to do so, might be derived from their trust and faith in God.
Their eagerness to work to make things to sell, with creativity and persistence.
