With a “heart filled with profound gratitude to him for His gift of vocation and mission”, the Archbishop Emeritus said: “50 years of my priesthood has given me abundant experiences of God’s blessing.” He attributed all the “love, care and guidance as well as unfailing help” he received, to “All is Grace” for when “God calls, it is for a mission, and He’s sure to grant him or her his unfailing help.” This, he quipped, reminded him of the song, “You never walk alone”.
