THIS WEEKS YOUTUBE VIDEO WITH FATHER MARK WHARTON: DOES GOD LOVE ME? Father Mark Wharton explains how we know God loves us and what this divine love means for our lives. Youtube video MISSION APPEAL NEXT SUNDAY Fr. Joachin Nwaorgu, CM is a priest of the Congregation of the Mission [Vincentians] and will be making a mission appeal on behalf of his religious order in support of their mission. The Vincentians is a religious order of priests and brothers founded in 1625 by St. Vincent de Paul in France. Our motto is Evangelizare Pauperibus Misit Me [He has sent me to preach the good news to the poor --Lk 4:18]. Our charism is evangelization of the poor and formation of clergy; and our apostolate include: retreat and mission, parish, prison, hospital, teaching and youth ministries. St Vincent's love for the poor whom he often called 'our lords and masters' spurred him to prefer working in mostly rural areas where they can be easily found. That spirit is still very much alive in the over 96 countries spread across 6 continents of the world where we are presently serving. The same applies to our sister religious order- The Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul who also serve in this country. Our mission is to use whatever resource at our disposal at the service of the less privileged both spiritually and materially. While it is an onerous task to serve the poor given the present global economic meltdown confronting everyone, your generous support will go a long way. in helping us provide shelter, education, health care as well as food to the someone somewhere; for sharing is caring. Be rest assured of our prayers, and the Lord Jesus who assures: Whatever you did to the least of my brothers, that you did unt me' [Mt. 25:40], will not let your charity go unnoticed and unrewarded. May he bless you always and keep you. Amen.
