From Our Executive
Director
Dear Dear Friend,
"There is nothing new under the sun!" "The more
things change, the more they stay the same!"
I say this by way of introducing myself, or reintroducing
myself, as incoming Director of Development for the
Missionaries of Africa, since I already filled this
role from 1987 until 1994.
I remember with gratitude the support and help given
by so many of you, who give, and have given, and yet
remain unknown to many of the missionaries in Africa.
As I write once again, I know I cannot do it without
you. It is your concern and support that gives
me the courage and strength to seek the means to help
the poor. Many in Africa live in great poverty,
in diverse situations, with the common denominator of
poverty bringing them together!
Please know that in the months and years ahead--as
I appeal for help on behalf of my colleagues and missionaries
working among the poor and placing my faith and trust
in your ongoing generosity. It is not for myself
that I ask, but for my colleagues and the people among
whom they work. It is your heart and hand that
reaches out to bring them food, water, and medicine
as well as many other material needs.
Thank you for sharing and caring,
Fr. John P. Lynch, M. Afr.
