Historical background:
Our family has been sponsoring Fr. Rony since 1990, through his studies for the Catholic Priesthood. He visited us in the summer of 2005. We were able to sponsor a fundraising event which included an outdoor Mass in our yard to start him on his Church Building Project.

        
Outdoor Mass celebrated in honor of Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha and St. Francis-Xavier

Parishioners from St. Joseph Church in Hope Valley RI,
St. Agnes in Ashland NH and St. Mathews in Plymouth NH.

  
St. Joseph Church                and                Parishioners

We are now dedicating this website as a further fundraiser.
Any financial assistance that you can be provided will be greatly appreciated.
Most certainly, you will be remembered in Fr. Rony's and our daily prayers.

MISSION WORK IN PROGRESS
Since 2005, there has been much progress in the continuing work of the St. Francis Xavier Mission at Kable.
The Cornerstone for the new Church was blessed by Bishop Lobo in January 2007.
With the villages providing the labor, the cost to build the church will be $150,000 of which $75,000 has been raised.
We still need $75,000 for materials to complete our project. We are asking you to please be generous.

Church Construction progress as of March 2008
