The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want

Through the world with Jesus Christ


Blue sky at green midlands lift you up closer to God

Dear Friend!

Galleries span throught time and space. You can see me in my early days of priesthood in Poland, glimpse the places I served as priest on three continents, explore Madagascar during my work there and enrich your understanding of my writing through pictures related to my books.

Please note that some images are decades old. Excuse their quality, some of them were scanned from slides or the only print copies left. For example Gallery 3.17 Exhumation. Scrolling corpses in the tribe Betsileo in Madagascar documents rituals performed about 30 years ago. Unfortunately pictures are of low quality but thanks to them you can partake in real events rarely seen today.

You might be also interested in my latest book "Challenges And Achievements: Real Life Of Canadian First Nations" (orig. in Polish: "Wyzwania i sukcesy: realia życia Indian Kanadyjskich Pierwszych Narodów") stemming from 2 decades-long experience of living there and studying their ways. There are a few sample pictures from numerous ones published in the book presented in gallery 3.18.
