However, yesterday morning he had a fall and fractured his left hip. It's not a serious fracture but he will need surgery. He's in good spirits. The accident happened on the 60th anniversary of his arrival in Negros as one of the pioneers in the then new Columban mission in the Diocese of Bacolod. The territory we were given is now the Diocese of Kabankalan, covering the southern part of the province of Negros Occidental. He is the only member of that first group still based in Negros.
Please keep him in your prayers.

Hi - I am Adelyn Pandis and I am one of the scholars of Father Patrick Hurley in Binalbagan Catholic College. I heard he was now staying in Ireland. My last meeting with him was on December 2009. When I visited him again in Biscom last 2013, I was informed that he went back to Ireland. Can I ask his exact address in Ireland? I just wanted to send him some greeting and post cards as my simple thank you for all his kindness. Thanks! :)
