Show you Care!
Join us in Caring for God’s Creation
“The poor and the earth are crying out.”
– Pope Francis
St. Francis of Assisi was a missioner in spirit. He taught us concern for nature and the poor are inseparable.
Maryknoll priests and Brothers living among our struggling brothers and sisters see this every day. In Africa, Asia and Latin America, caring for people living on the margins also means caring for the environment they live in.
This year, your Giving Tuesday gift will help Maryknoll priests and Brothers care For God’s creation. You’ll help support missioners who are working to improve farming with new, sustainable techniques and drought-resistant seeds. Who are leading efforts to drill wells, conserve water and restore water sources. Who fight chronic diseases like HIV, offer shelter and help to migrants. And who feed the hungry victims of drought and internal displacement.
Help us continue to put our Catholic faith in action.
Show you care.
A personal note from the Superior General
Hello,
May the Blessings of the season be with you!
I hope, if you’ve read this far, you are thinking about how much good your Giving Tuesday gift can do. The truth is, you can’t even imagine the difference your gifts make in the lives of people and communities.
Many of you know that I spent more than thirty years living among and working with the people of eastern Africa. I can tell you they are among the neediest people on earth. And so are the people Fr. John Barth, M.M. works with on the Thai-Myanmar border. And that Fr. Joyalito Tajonera, M.M. works with in Taiwan. And that Fr. Greg McPhee, M.M. works with in Bolivia.
We are called, in the spirit of mission, to serve these people. And when you send a Giving Tuesday gift you become our partner in that endeavor.
To see a child’s face light up with joy because there’s food. To see the relief on a mother’s face when she learns she no longer needs to walk four miles to clean water. To see a farmer relieved that the crops are growing despite the paltry rain. These are small miracles that you help make possible.
Thank you for supporting our work.
May God bless you this holiday season.
Fr. Lance P. Nadeau
Superior General
