The mission and the economic crisis
In this period we are going through a stormy economic storm. We hope with a good chance of navigating the straits of recession after about (3) years. Then we will encounter dangerous underwater reefs on our way out… This means constant vigilance at the railing of necessity and skillful manipulation of flexibility at the helm of the economy.Unfortunately, the moral culprit is the citizen, for he has not mastered a conscientious party compass to keep us in calm waters, even of partial prosperity.The accompanying vision towards the nation-saving port is the intrinsic wish of all of us. But we must not forget that there are people in the world who, with their sail of hope torn, are drowned by deadly economic cyclones.
The World Health Organization (WHO) now puts the number of children who end their lives at 25,000 every day. This drama of death unravels our guilt and sorrow overshadows joy.
Our Brotherhood in its quiet course (since 1963) has been providing rations, vaccines, medicines to orphans and poor children. It builds schools of all levels, medical clinics, clinics, orphanages, opens wells and meets various social needs.
This year we are funding several projects that are in danger of not being completed due to financial difficulties. In Africa: Two (2) primary schools in Kisangani, Congo and Burundi and one (1) secondary school in Uganda (NGOMBE), two (2) Resurrection Churches in Sierra Leone and Malawi. In India, one (1) boys’ orphanage in Kolkata (there is a girls’ orphanage). Near all these projects we need to continue to cover organized soup kitchens, children’s education expenses and well drilling. Our thanks to the donors travel daily like the waves of the sea, accompanying their life’s journey. And the pay is much in heaven.
