Hi everyone! some of you already know, I will be going on a young adult mission trip to Comayagua, Honduras with the Missioners of Christ and the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (CFR) from March 24th-29th, 2008. As part of our journey, all missioners are given a list of items that are needed for the apostolates that the CFRs and the Missioners run. We are asked to try and bring as many items as we can fit into 1 checked piece of luggage.
My friend Jeremy Santos, a seminarian for the Diocese of Sacramento, will also be a part of this mission journey. Together, we have 2 pieces of luggage to fill with supplies. That is where we need your help!
Below is the list that we were given. If you are able to donate any of the below items, please contact either Jeremy (j_angeles27@hotmail.com) or me (cecilia.v.flores@gmail.com). If you are unable to donate, we ask that you unite with us in prayer for the success of the mission.
YOUR DONATIONS AND PRAYERS
ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
