"Alleluia" Fr. Richard Ho Lung & Friends Album: Working For The Lord OCP Publications; Director: David Ho View it on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5LKLYF-wZc To purchase a copy of the complete video "Blessed: The Music of Fr. Richard Ho Lung & Friends" please visit the MOP website: www.missionariesofthepoor.org/videos.htm Under the direction of Fr. Richard Ho Lung, a group of extremely talented Jamaican artists have come together as "Father Ho Lung & Friends". Through drama, song, dance and music, they provide significant evangelization to thousands of men, women and children of all socio-economic levels through the performance of music written by Fr. Ho Lung. Expressing love of life, of God, and of the poor, the music is performed in theatres in Jamaica and abroad, and is used in liturgical services throughout the Caribbean. All the lyrics for the songs and the stories are original compositions of Father Ho Lung. Aside from drawing from biblical themes, Father Ho Lung has also written plays based on the struggles and joys of the poor and on social issues affecting the lives of Jamaicans. In Jamaica, eight successive musical productions have been awarded the Jamaica Music Industry Award, the highest award presented by the music industry for best music in theatre. The performing group has also been instrumental in drawing tens of thousands of people locally and abroad in forging relationships and in obtaining material support to assist the Missionaries of the Poor in their works among the poor. In 1981, Father Richard Ho Lung founded the Missionaries of the Poor, an international Catholic monastic order of religious brothers dedicated to "Joyful Service with Christ on the Cross" to serve the poorest of the poor. Please visit: www.missionariesofthepoor.org The Missionaries of the Poor (MOP) community is a missionary institute of the Catholic Church, and is headquartered in Kingston, Jamaica. The men who join the MOP community make four solemn, lifetime vows -- of poverty, chastity, obedience, and free service to the poor -- after about six years of discernment while serving in the MOP missions spread throughout the world. "For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me ... Whenever you did this to the least of my brethren, you did it to Me." (Matthew 25:35,40)
