AS miaraka isika manomboka ity taona vaovao ity, ny "rivotra" dia bevohoka amin'ny fanantenana. Niaiky aho fa, tamin'ny Krismasy, dia nanontany tena aho raha tsy hiteny amin'ny alàlan'ity apôstôly ity intsony ny Tompo amin'ny taona ho avy. Ny mifanohitra amin'izay no izy. Tsapako fa saika dodona ny hiteny amin'ireo malalany ny Tompo… Ary noho izany, isan'andro, hitohy ny hamelako ny teniny ho ao amiko, ary ho azy ho ahy, ho anao. Araka ny voalazan'ny ohabolana:
Raha tsy misy faminaniana, dia nanary fangejana ny vahoaka. (Prov 29:18)
And as dear St. John Paul II said:
Ankehitriny dia ambonin'izany rehetra izany ny ora tsy mivadika, izay, amin'ny fiantsoana manokana azy ireo hamolavola ny tontolo laika mifanaraka amin'ny Evanjely, dia nantsoina mba hampandroso ny iraka ara-paminaniana ataon'ny Fiangonana amin'ny alàlan'ny fitoriana filazantsara amin'ireo sehatra samihafa eo amin'ny fiainam-pianakaviana, ara-tsosialy, matihanina ary ara-kolontsaina. -Address to the Bishops of the Ecclesiastical Provinces of Indianapolis, Chicago and Milwaukee tamin'ny fitsidihan'izy ireo "Ad Limina", 28 Mey 2004
That mission does not change according to the times. In fact, it is more urgent than ever. And that’s why Ilay Teny Ankehitriny is here: to help you find and live in God’s will for your life so that you are a 
source of light to the world around you. As the world grows in spiritual darkness, the opportunity for us to shine is ever brighter! That’s pretty exciting if you ask me.
But I cannot do this ministry without your help. Ilay Teny Ankehitriny is a full-time apostolate that has only existed to this point because of your prayers and generosity. As this new year continues, I come to you again as a beggar to help me reach souls in whatever way you can. In fact, I pray that those of you who are financially capable will really pray about making a big difference in our apostolate this year. I hate thinking about money but that’s the reality every ministry faces in the twenty-first century. I don’t ask very often, but I need to today.
This year, we are praying about expanding my ministry into a podcast and/or videocast, if it is desired by you. I’m also discerning whether the Lord wants me to do more outreach in person. So pray that God will shower me with Wisdom and Light so that I may know and do His Will with joy and without reserve.
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom should I fear?… Though an army encamp against me, my heart does not fear; though war be waged against me, even then do I trust. (Psalm 27:1, 3)

Last, Lea and I want to thank you for your prayers, support, and beautiful letters that flooded in over Christmas. Our family is no different than any other—we are all under siege. But that’s why we have to stick together, right?
Tiana ianao.

Tahio, ary misaotra!
