Wind and rain couldn’t dampen the spirit at @StDominicsPriory today. In weather mirroring the cold, dark trenches of WWI, the Marist Uitenhage memorial finally arrived home. A deeply moving moment #LestWeForget #MaristBrothers #WWI
A 1,100km journey home. The hail sounded like Vickers machine guns; the lightning like battlefield flares; but the priceless Marist WWI Memorial has arrived safely – soon @StDominicsPrior @PickfordsSA
Greatcoats on, greatcoats off... hurry up and wait
Anyone who served knows the command “Makeriepas!” - and right now, our Marist Uitenhage memorial is marking time at @PickfordsSA. See Part 4 priory.co.za/olwf
