Please read the following letter from the Sisters of the Witness to Faith. This time was more special. Instead of giving gifts to the poor in their homes, the Sisters invited the families to the Congregation to meet the Sisters and receive their gifts.
Dear Sister and Benefactors of the Hong An Association,
On behalf of the Sisters of the Witness to Faith and the people in Bao Loc, Vietnam, we want to thank you for your help and gifts. These acts of generosity have brought so much joy and happiness. It also motivates us on our mission and encourages us to live out our devotion to serve the poor. We wish you and the benefactors all the peace and blessings of God.
Dear Sister,
Previously, we brought gifts to their homes. For the first time, I invited them to the Congregation to receive gifts and to adore the Blessed Sacrament and give thanks to God. Everyone is very happy, Sister.
I have distributed 151 portions under the program “Hong An Rice” to help people. I will distribute the scholarships at the end of the year to prepare for the new year. It will not be convenient to distribute them at the beginning of the year. I will write a report and send a picture later regarding the scholarship.
Life is very difficult at this time. We put our trust in God, Sister, because life is unpredictable. Live each day as it comes. The people here are very pitiful, they lost their crops and there’s COVID. There are places that are isolated, so the atmosphere is gloomy and dull. Most people don’t go out but stay indoors with their families. They’re afraid of meeting people and catching COVID then passing it to their families and around the village. This is the common burden of the whole world, right? Well, we have to pray for each other. May God take care of us.
Once again, on behalf of all of everyone, we would like to thank you, Sister and the benefactors of Hong An Association for sharing with us through prayers, concern and donations. May God repay you in abundance on our behalf. Please continue to pray, support, and love the people in this area. Please support us as a congregation so that we can work with you to share the faith and love of God.
Sister ANNA NGUYEN THI N.
