My name is Father Andry, I am a young priest from Madagascar and l'm 34 years old. I was ordained priest on 29 December 2019. Now we have opening a new mission in the north of Madagascar and we opened an university ASJA (ATHENEE SAINT JOSEPH ANTSOHIHY) to help the poor young people to continue their academic formation and to help them to get out of the poverty. For this we have many projects to do both for infrastructures and for school fees. First for the infrastructures we want to build two dormitories (two houses for students), one for boys and one for girls. Second, Among our 280 students we have now, 210 of them fail to pay their tuition during the year. And for this we want to ask help from your association to carry out our mission for the poor and with the poor.
Aside from this, we want to ask for volunteers to teach English in the language department beyond the agronomy and the economy and trade departments. Thanks for your help and cooperation. Father Andry (Priest of the Sacred Heart of Jesus)
The Missionary Society of St. Paul is a religious Order based in Abuja, Nigeria.
The reason there are two address on their letterhead is because there are two offices in the States for priests to come to be processed for their assignment to parishes in the USA.
These precious African priests dedicate themselves to missionary work in the black community. They accept assignments in parishes that white priests don't want. Asian and Hispanic priests prefer assignments with their own people, as well.
African American parishes are poorly understaffed and have accepted staffing from priests who represent more than 30 countries from the continent of Africa.
Donations from people like you and me go to help Seminarians and school children in the homeland. The money helps villages to dig wells which brings clean water to villages for drinking, cooking, and sanitation.
Donations help children to learn to read so they can grow up having access to more opportunities than their uneducated ancestors.
We give back to Africa because Africa has given us her brightest and strongest men to leave their villages to serve Jesus Christ and his people all over the world. They give up their families to fly half way around the world to serve our families. It is a labor unto the LORD.
Missionary of St. Paul Fathers work closely with Josephite Fathers and Brothers to make sure Black Catholics are served by priests who honor a common kinship, heritage, and spirituality.
For more information, you are invited to take a moment to read about the M.S.P. and the work they do every day for the Kingdom of God and his Church.
