Rev. Michael Lapsley, from the Institute of the Healing of Memories in Cape Town, is here in Gulu for three days of sessions with victims of the LRA war who've, like him, been maimed by the violence of others.
He spoke at the TEAM (Towards Effective Anglican Mission) conference in Boksburg, South Africa in March of this year. And if you subscribe to the Episcopal Life podcast, you'll find his speech appears right after that of Rt. Rev. Nelson Onono-Onweng, my bishop and host (I live in his compound). As this conference was going on in Africa, in North Carolina the possibility of spending a year in Northern Uganda, and under Bishop Onono-Onweng, became real. These two podcasts framed in my mind what I wanted my mission to be.
Rev. Michael Lapsley: I highly commend to you his words and story.
