I would like to express my gratitude to the Mission Fund for its donation of €2,000 towards our MSSP mission in the periphery of Lahore, Pakistan. Thank you also for €500 for Mass intentions.

This donation will go into a fund we MSSP Fathers serving in our parish have set up to enable young people from the parish to pursue their higher education. Studying at tertiary level is very expensive here, even in government institutions, which our families simply cannot afford.

In our own High School, the MSSP shoulders the full burden of all the teachers’ salaries every month [€2,500], so as to keep the students’ monthly fee as low as possible: from one-and-half euros to a maximum of three-and-a- half euros.

May I also appeal to benefactors to continue to support the Mission Fund by sending used stamps, and/or making direct donations online, or by bank transfer in any of the following accounts: HSBC [A/C No. 061 197 448 050]; BOV [A/C No. 163 007 980 19]; APS [A/C No. 200 008 207 62]; or BNF [A/C No. 000 879 631 01].
