Speaker:  Fr. Marcel Okwara, C.SsR

Fr. Marcel Emeka Okwara was born and raised in Nigeria.  He was ordained

on June 30, 2007 in Nigeria and was immediately sent to the US.

Fr. Marcel’s entire theology of hope is based on two words” “God knows” –

a theology taught and communicated to him by his late mother.

Topic: "Forgiveness – The Medicine of Healing"

Forgiveness is something we have heard time and time again preached about

in churches, schools, families etc.  It’s a virtue that is most talked about.

But what exactly is forgiveness?  In this talk, we are going to explore what

forgiveness is and what it is not.  Can someone who refuses to forgive be saved?”
