The Manila mission

I am a member of the MSSP assigned to the mission in the Philippines. My main pastoral work is in a state University in Metro Manila.

As chaplain, together with my campus ministry team, we are trying to give students a Christian formation and provide scholarships so that they can further their studies. Most of them come from poor families in Manila and the surrounding provinces.

We encounter students that cannot complete their courses because of financial problems. Besides, near our house in Quezon City there are many poor families who experience lots of hardships.

These last three months alone they had floods due to typhoon Ondoy and, recently, a big fire destroyed many of their houses.

We would like to thank you all for your help and support.

I like to say thank you to the Mission Fund of Eureka Court, Blk A, Flat 6 (ground floor), Main Street, Mosta for their help to our mission.

Wishing you a blessed Christmas.
