In our area - in the parish of Mazoria in Ethiopia - there are many Catholic people and local religious vocations. We would like to provide accommodation to some girls in our house who want to join us in our religious life while they are still studying. Together with these girls, we organise a "Come and See Programme" during which they stay with us for some months. However, due to lack of space, we cannot accept all the girls who want to participate.

For this reason, we asked the Mission Fund for some money to build two extra rooms and a chapel. The Mission Fund agreed to our request and sent us a contribution. We would like to say 'thank you very much' to the Mission Fund and at the same time ask the public to send them used stamps and donations to help them help us Maltese missionaries in Third World countries.

Donations can be made online or by direct bank transfer to one of the following accounts: HSBC (Acc. No: 061 197 448 050); B0V (Acc. No: 163 007 980 19); APS (Acc No: 200 008 207 62) or Banif (Acc. No: 000 879 631 01). More information is available from the website: www.missionfund.org.mt. Thank you in advance.
