 Dear Missionary From Afar,

Today – and before it is too late – I wish to THANK all the generous donors that contributed to the building and restoring of the living quarters for our Candidates, Oblates and Postulants. 

Thanks to your generosity they have today much better conditions for their internship: small individual rooms, a new refectory and a new laundry, etc.

I pray that God and His Blessed Mother reward you in great abundance. And… from the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU! Thank you for supporting these beautiful vocations.

God bless you always.

Missionary in Africa
Mission St. Therese of the Child Jesus

Our five Oblates (from left to right): Paul, Francis, Dieu-Vivant, Steeguen, Gabriel.) They have several important tasks at the Mission such as accompanying the children while our busses pick them up and drop them off before and after school. They coordinate our altar boy program. They prepare the Mission’s daily Masses, Adoration, and all the liturgy. May God bless their generous hearts.

Our four Candidates (from left to right): Victor, Modeste, Victor and Gerald. While discerning for the Priesthood, their internship consists of formation meetings, daily meditation, daily Mass, adoration, daily recitation of the Divine Office, as they participate in the community’s work and activities. Please pray for them.

Our Postulants: Angelique, Faithfrances and Martha Therese. (The American young lady is a volunteer – a nurse – who came to help us for 6 month.) Angelique coordinates the Mission’s Clinic and the others participate in the community program and have different tasks during the day such as helping with the girls at the orphanage. Please pray for them all.
