That One Thing Justyn H Rees

"Do you know what the secret of life is?... Just one thing.

You stick to that and the rest don't mean shit."

Curly in City Slickers

"Love and be loved! That is the only reality in the world,

all else is folly. It is the one thing we are interested in here."

War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy

"One thing I ask of the LORD. This is what I seek."

Psalm 27:4, The Bible

A storyteller and writer, Justyn is passionately concerned for peace and reconciliation in a broken world. Amongst his many adventures he journeyed for five years with a mobile theatre company from town to town across Canada presenting the story of reconciliation at a time when national division seemed inevitable. Following the genocide in Rwanda, he led a forty strong delegation from Canada and the UK appealing for forgiveness to a people divided by racial and religious atrocities. He regularly lectures in warweary Ukraine inspiring teachers to pass on the gift of love and forgiveness to a coming generation. Justyn has written several books, including To Make an Old Story New, and To Make a Long Story Short .
