    Dear Steve,

    Belated Congratulations on your ordination as Bishop of the diocese of Hamilton New Zealand on Friday evening 13 February in the Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin, Hamilton.

    So the rumour has turned out a reality and it was true! I am so happy for you personally and for the Diocese of Hamilton and also for the Church in New Zealand to have someone like you as their Bishop.

    I wish that I got the news earlier.
    See you sometime in the second semester of 2015.

    Best wishes,
    Peter Hung Tran

Such wise people have reflected on their life experience enough to know that while a peaceful and perfect day is welcome, we are most connected with others and therefore with God (we could also say most connected with God and therefore with others), when we live a struggle together.
