You show your care and commitment to helping the poor with your every gift in response to my appeals. Your steadfast generosity touches more lives than you can imagine.
Each day we pray for you and for all who are dear to you. It is the best gift we can offer in gratitude for the sacrifices you make on behalf of the poor we serve. Through your partnership with us, children are educated and formed in the faith, the elderly are visited, the dying are comforted, the poor are given hope and solace, and the faith of many people is enriched.
In gratitude for all you have done for us, we want to offer you the opportunity to have Masses celebrated by our missionary priests.
Many of our Franciscan missionary priests use Mass stipends to buy food, fuel, and medicine. These stipends provide the financial means to live and serve the poor in dangerous and faraway places such as South Sudan, Syria, India, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Ukraine.
We have over 5,000 missionaries in missions throughout the world. Last year, we received requests for over 140,000 Masses to be offered for the personal intentions of our friends and benefactors.
If you would like to arrange to have a Mass offered, please complete the enclosed form and return it to me in the envelope provided. I will arrange for our missionary priests to celebrate Mass for your intentions as soon as possible.
I pray my grateful words can carry to you some measure of the great good you have made possible through your prayers and generous support. Your gifts help us deliver hope to people who live in poverty around the world.
Gratefully yours,
Brother Andrew Brophy, OFM
Executive Director
