I am a member of the Missionary Society of St Paul, assigned in our Mission in Manila, Philippines. My mission is in a State University and also in a parish where a new community is being formed.

Our main mission in the university is to give the community there a good Christian formation and to help them in their study needs. Most of them come from poor families who live in the provinces. We meet the students who cannot afford to continue their courses for they have no financial means.

Besides, in Manila there are many squatter families who mostly live on the streets of the city. These people are living in a very depressing situation, deprived of all that is needed to live as a human person. We are trying to help them thanks to your generosity and concern.

I would also like to thank the Mission Fund of Eureka Court, Blk. A, Flat 6, Main Street, Mosta for the help received.
