On Tuesday, June 15, 2010, had the grace to have a brief meeting with Father Florencio Minguez, Franciscan Missionary Pastor of Immaculate Flor de Punga (Peru).
We all appreciated his valuable experience as a missionary in the Peruvian Amazon and start coordinating the construction of the next phase of decent housing. This time, decent housing will be performed in villages near Flor de Punga, as the living conditions of some families make it necessary.
told us that his current priorities are:
- Extender and strengthen the network of Christian leaders, which are essential part of Christian living Amazonian communities. Support
- higher education scholarships for young people able to overcome and progress.
- is also necessary to support elementary education for over 250 children without parents. In this work, the help of Mother Courage has been and is the mainstay. Anyway would like to extend aid to families unable to sustain spending on education for all children. Additionally
- thousand gaps exist that need our attention: food and nutritional support, health care, etc.
With these objectives we will work to support the work of Florencio Br. Any help and cooperation is welcome. Do not hesitate to contact us:
Florencio We wish you a happy trip back to Blossom Punga.
