Lennon

Russel and Lennon had been friends since childhood. They started as Altar Servers of their parish where they began to love Sophia -wisdom- and search for her. Reading and discussing anything that tickles their curiosity, the two friends began to research and share more of their knowledge in religion, society, and philosophy.

With the two now living their life in their own distinct fields -Russel is a civil servant while Lennon is a consecrated person- their passion and vocation of teaching compelled them to open up their private friendly discussions to wider set of friends through TUUMT.
