The Assembly of Catholic Professionals was honoured to share an impossible story of beauty and suffering with the man they call Cambodia’s Bishop of the Wheelchairs, His Excellency Bishop Enrique Figaredo Alvargonzalez, affectionately known as Bishop Kike.

Bishop Enrique began his mission in the refugee camps of Cambodia in 1985, working with those who had been displaced, maimed by landmines and suffered as a result of war, disease and persecution. And yet, in the midst of terrible struggle and sorrow, he discovered hope, resilience and love. You can watch his presentation (below) where he shares his personal experiences of his work in Cambodia.
