THE 22nd ANNUAL AFJ MILLENNIUM AWARDS 2008

In the realms of Lay Catholic evangelization, few have done as much as the Ambassadors For Jesus in Calcutta, India, under the direction of its Founder Melvyn Brown. The 22nd Millennium Award this year, 2008 is another addition to their repertoire. Preserving sustainable virtues to inspire future generations in the need to
enhance genuine life values is the priority AFJ wields. This year the Awards dominate the Catholic scene with men and women who have gone ' beyond the call of duty ' to handle their immediate world of work and worship : bringing hope and love into difficult situations.

Man of the Year, JOSEPH RODGERS.
Joseph has had a chequered life, encountering the struggles of the average person and having the courage to assist them in their hour of need. Mr. Rodgers is an
ex-army man , a teacher, educationist and a youth leader extraordinary, who goes out of his orbit most often to help the weak and the helpless. Joe ( as he likes being known by those close to him )is a sincere individual, humble, hard-working and often forgets to know when to take time off. He received 357 nominations more than his rival contender, Michael Robertson.
