In this personal documentary, EWTN News correspondent Colm Flynn
travels to Angola to tell the story of his uncle, Fr. James Flynn.

A Holy Ghost Father, Fr. James spent more than 30 years as a
missionary in Africa, serving through Angola’s civil war, political
repression and widespread poverty. Rather than leave during the
country’s darkest years, he remained with the people, supporting
vulnerable children, protecting the faith and bringing the sacraments
to isolated communities.

Colm recorded this documentary a number of years ago, after realising
that while he was traveling the world reporting on priests and
religious doing extraordinary work, someone in his own family had
quietly devoted much of his life to doing the same.

Fr. James has since retired from missionary life and returned to
Scotland, where he continues to serve as a priest. This film offers a
moving snapshot of his years in Angola and the people and places that
transformed his mission into his home.
