P. Paul Schindele SJM publishes thoughts on 30th anniversary of St. Lorenz school in Kazakhstan

Father Paul Schindele, SJM, published reflections on the 30th anniversary of St. Lorenz school in Kazakhstan.

The school's history began in 2000 when Father Lorenz Gawol, General Vicar of the Archdiocese of the Holy Mary in Astana, requested a priest from the SJM community. The priest was assigned to serve as the school's administrative director and to perform pastoral work in the parishes of Korneewka and Tonkoschurowka.

The SJM community has worked in Kazakhstan for 26 years, with 10 priests from the community serving in the country for at least one year.
