Columban Christmas Appeal
Give something, however small,
to the one in need.
For it is not small to one who has nothing.
Neither is it small to God, if we have given what we could.’
St Gregory Nazianzus
Happy New Year! As we step into 2025, I hope this letter finds you well and in good spirits. I am reaching out to you regarding the recent Columban Christmas Appeal that we shared with our cherished supporters. As one of our valued benefactors, your support over the years has been a tremendous source of strength and encouragement for our mission. I wanted to take this opportunity to kindly remind you that your contribution, no matter the size, makes a significant impact on the lives of those we serve.
In our recent Christmas Appeal, we shared urgent needs that continue to require our collective efforts:
- Helping families in Pakistan recover from the devastating floods.
- Providing education for underprivileged children in Myanmar and Peru.
- Supporting sustainable agricultural projects in the Philippines.
Your generosity helps us continue this vital work and bring hope to those in need.
I ask you to use the options below to support the Columban Mission Appeal.
Thank you for being a part of this journey of hope and compassion. Wishing you a blessed year ahead.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Fr Patrick McInerney
Regional Director of Oceania
