Malta has always treasured the missionary vocation left to us by St Paul, Pope Benedict XVI reminded us during his visit marking the anniversary of Paul's providential shipwreck at St Paul's Bay.

While some persons live out this mission in far off lands, bringing God's love to those on the margins of society and restoring to them their downtrodden dignity, others here in Malta back up their efforts with prayer and financial support.

I have worked for the last 30 years in India, mostly in the field of community health and community- based rehabilitation and integration of children with disabilities, mostly tribal Santal children. I am indebted to the Mission Fund and all their friends for their support to me and their regular contributions for my work. This consists mainly of training local personnel as village-level health and rehabilitation workers as well as taking children for medical and surgical treatment to specialised centres.

Through this letter I wish to express my gratitude to all concerned. I encourage all persons of good will to continue to support the efforts of the Mission Fund by sending them used stamps and donations so that they may continue to help the many Maltese missionaries working in Third World countries.
