Every year, during the monsoon, one watches on TV a lot of pictures from India showing flooded areas, damaged houses and people fleeing to higher ground. However, there are areas that face water scarcity for several months during the long hot summer.

I happen to live and work in one such area. The wells on which we depend for our water supply dry up.

Therefore, we need to dig another big well to have enough water for our schoolchildren, the hundreds of boarders who live on campus and our neighbours.

I thank the Mission Fund for their precious contribution to fulfil this need of the place. I encourage all to cooperate with the Fund by donating money, used stamps and used telecards so that they will continue to help the Malta missionaries in their work.

The Mission Fund is at Eureka Court, Block A, Flat 6, Main Street, Mosta MST1018. Tel. 2141 3664
