Dear Comboni Lay Missionaries and all the People of God.

The mission continues! For the past three months, I have been on mission in Piquiá, Açailândia, in the state of Maranhão, where I work at the Rural Family Home (CFR), which serves students in their first, second, and third years of high school—mostly the children of farmers who, in addition to theoretical instruction, learn hands-on skills in agriculture, vegetable gardening, fruit growing, fish farming, animal husbandry, and beekeeping.
I see this as very important and necessary work so that our young people can continue to live on the land and provide for their families.
On weekends, I’m joining the activities of the Santa Luzia Parish in Piquiá, and will soon begin to get involved in pastoral work.

I always count on the prayers of each one of you to give me the strength to continue on this journey.
A big hug to everyone.
Tito, Comboni Lay Missionary.
