Reminiscences of an Accidental Missionary

In a free and funny style, this book tries to narrate the experiences of an ordinary Nigerian diocesan priest who unprepared found himself working as a missionary, first in Nigeria, his home country, and is still active as a missionary in the Diocese of Linz in Upper Austria.

Fada Onyekwelu Paulinus Anaedu was born on 12.02.1968. On 19.08.1995, he was ordained a Catholic priest in his home diocese of Awka in Southeast Nigeria (the former Biafra). After eight years of pastoral work in Nigeria, he came to Austria in February 2004 for further studies. In July 2009, he got his doctorate in Biblical Theology (New Testament) from the University of Salzburg. Since then he has been working as a parish priest in the diocese of Linz in the State of Upper Austria. In 2013, he got a post-doctoral "Master of Arts in Intercultural Studies" also from the University of Salzburg.
