Hello friends!
Just to let you know. We will be doing our Uganda presentation at St John West Shore Hospital on Thursday, April 23 at 6 pm in Auditorium B, Building 2. All are welcome to attend.
We have many ongoing projects. The most amazing of which is the ground breaking for the new St. Monica's to be built in Atiak, a very impoverished and war torn area about 50-60 kilometers north of Gulu (the land is pictured above with Srs. Rosemary and Assumpta). The people there are in such desperate need. The Sisters of the Sacred Heart are currently preparing 12 acres of land to build a similar facility as St Monica's in Gulu.
Necklaces made by the young women are beautiful. They are always available at my office for 5-10 dollars. A great way to support a great cause. Again, thank you all for your support.
We are also working with Sr. Rosemary on a project to have individual 'long range adoptions'. She is identifying children who are unable to attend school secondary to financial constraints. It seems that about $100-150 per year will provide a child tuition, clothing, books and food assistance for a year. What a small sacrifice to change the future of a young person. We are currently developing the logistics of this project. If anyone is interested, please contact me at will.richardson@oh.rr.com.
Wishing you all a most Blessed Easter season!
Peace,
Monique
