Kids from Musky

Received news from Fr Vincenzo in Musky (Cairo). He sent the photo (right) of his Musky "tribe" - the group of very poor children who are receiving aid from you. They came to take this group photo for me to say "Happy Feastday"... which is so sweet of them. But bad news is baby Abdel Masih (see photo right below) is ill. He couldn't come for the photo shoot. But from the photo, the rest of Fr Vincenzo's tribe seem happy and lively. Thanks for helping these children - it provides them with at least one meal a day, medicine and clothing. This is truly the most meaningful gift for my feastday - to see how you have "clothed the naked, fed the hungry" as mentioned in Matthew's Gospel. May God say to you one day "Come good and faithful servant into your master's joy".
