This year, St. Anthony on the Lake was busting at their seams with donations from parishioners and non-parishioners doing missionary work in Peru. Since so many people had donations to send to Peru, the shipping container filled up quickly. Some donations didn't fit in the container. St. Paul's donations were some of the donations that didn't fit in the container.
What are we going to do now?
St. John the Baptist Church, outside of Oklahoma City, has shipments going to Peru three times a year. St. Paul Parish has shipped with them in the past. We have asked Cheryl, head of their Peru Ministry, if they could help us again by sending our donations. She said, "Yes, we'll help you."
In October, St. Paul Parish will be driving to Oklahoma City, to drop off all the donations that'll be used during our June, 2019, medical mission trip.
In a few weeks, Charlie S., the physician assistant who oversees the medical staff and clinic activities, will be ordering all the medications needed for our clinic.
Please pray that all donations are shipped to Peru and available for our June, 2019 medical mission trip.
Dear Lord,
Give us hope that all things will turn out alright, and the way you intended it to be.
While we are doing our best to be strong and optimistic and true to Your teachings, please surround us with Your Love.
Your will be done!
AMEN
