Now that the pandemic is much reduced, we are able to host a missionary this year.  Fr. Dinh is pictured above.  He belongs to the Augustinians of the Assumption and will speak at all five Masses this coming weekend, July 17-18.  Fr. Dinh will ask for our prayers and financial support for the missions.  To learn more, follow these links:

Fr. Dinh ordained a priest.

     Here's a little summary of what the missionaries do:

       Our Province of North America is specifically responsible for the missions in East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda), Mexico and the Philippines.  We provide personnel and financial assistance that is indispensable in order to maintain our charitable works (schools and nurseries) and formation programs for both laity and clergy in these countries.  Many of our apostolates in these countries specifically work to better the living conditions of the impoverished brothers and sisters we live with and minister to.  In the Philippines, we sponsor education and aid programs for underprivileged villages both in the Manilla area and in other mission centers.  Our newly founded parish in Orizaba, Veracruz, Mexico ministers to an underserved indigenous community.

God love you,

Fr. Jim
