Chantal Lucas

For the first time in years (2-4 years perhaps), I played the tape Praise 4. It was given to me by Chantal Lucas and I suddenly miss her.

Chantal Lucas was like a mother to me when I was at the World Alliance of YMCA's in Genava, Switzerland in 1994. I believe that more than anyone there, she understood how I missed my family. She toured the Philippines before she married. And she told me that one glaring difference between Geneva and the Philippines is in the size of their churches and houses. While churches in the Philippines are imposing structures and most of the people's houses are small, churches in Geneva are quite small compared to the high-rise buildings in which people live.

She wrote me several times but I haven't been good at keeping in touch and writing letters. Now, I wonder where Chantal and her family are now.

Well, technology has shrunk the world. Perhaps, I'll meet her again one of these days :)
