Come Back Tomorrow African Memories documents the history of the Carmelite Mission in Uganda back to the recommendation of Pope Paul VI. The Holy Father encouraged the traditional religious orders of the Church to go to Africa to enrich the Church with their distinctive charisms. The Discalced Carmelites responded by bringing their charism of interior prayer. Their Generalate in Rome called upon the California-Arizona Province to rise to this task, and they are meeting this challenge with generosity.

One of the founding members, Fr David Costello, shares a lively eyewitness account of his memories in Uganda and Kenya. He draws on the spiritual resources of his Order and brings his own pastoral experience to create a treasure for future missionaries.

As younger Ugandan Carmelites take over the work in Uganda,
Come Back Tomorrow is a hope-filled account of how God has generously blessed the Carmelite vine in Uganda.
