Just arriving in East Africa in the year 1978, Father John is entrusted with founding a monastery in Kenya. With courage and unusual methods, the young community grows on the outskirts of Nairobi. A new area of responsibility opens up with the founding of another monastery in neighboring Uganda. In the war-torn country, "Major John" is able to survive numerous life-threatening situations resourcefully and with diplomatic skills. For more than 20 years, Father John Neudegger lived and served as a Missionary Benedictine in Kenya, Uganda, South Africa and Namibia. Due to his charismatic character and an unshakeable faith in God he managed to build up three Benedictine monasteries. The exciting and humorous memories bring an eventful piece of missionary and Benedictine history to life.
