Ave Maria!
These are the children of one of our 4 schools at Ijebu Igbo (Nigeria). The House of Charity houses about 60 boys in efforts to give these very poor children a better education. The Franciscans of the Immaculate are asking for HELP!

The Franciscans of the Immaculate have a new effort in helping the poor in Nigeria, Benin and Cameroon. They have been active in digging wells for drinking water - the children especially delight in the wells when they are newly spurting forth water - they splash and play as they marvel at the new wonder! The Friars need all kinds of help in expanding the Charity School and in other needs: livestock for food for the House of Charity, cleaning supplies, dried foods, sports equipment, school furniture and supplies, Church equipment for the Shrine in Benin and other chapels they attend to, tents and chairs to house pilgrims, computer equipment for their media apostolate, 4x4 vehicles. They are looking to send a shipping container with necessary items purchased here in America - the items here are more suitable and/or higher quality. They are accepting donations: to donate on line: marymediatrix.com/africanmission or to pay by check pay to: Our Lady's Chapel and in the Memo line “African Mission" and mail to: Fr. Maximilian Warnisher, FI, 600 Pleasant St., New Bedford, MA 02740. May Our Lady shower all who read this with special graces and blessings, and draw you close to Her Divine Son!
