CFCA follow-up

In January Fr.O’Toole spoke at all of our Masses about the work of the Christain FOundation of Children and Aging (CFCA). CFCA has a sponsorship model in which one sponsor partners with one child or aging friend in a developing country, offering support and encouragement. This relationship impacts not only the child or aging friend but the sponsor as well.

CFCA recently contacted us say thank you. They have attributed 330 people being sponsored as a result of the weekend visit to St. Columbkille. They said they were delighted with the results and consider is one of the most successful weekends they have done. So thank you.

Because many of the people being sponsored are from Guatemala, the video below about their work in Guatemala is included here:
