To the principals of Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend

Dear fellow school principals in the Diocese of South Bend and Fort Wayne …

After my visit with some of you in December, I am so happy to co-operate with you and your school during the coming season of Lent.  My thanks to my Bishop Mike and your Bishop Kevin Rhoades and Carl Loesch for their support.  

I want to propose a joint project for this season of Lent.  

We African Catholics take seriously the call to prayer and fasting and almsgiving during Lent.

Our teachers and staff and students are excited to find friends in Indiana who will team up with us with your almsgiving.

You simply need to tell us of your prayer intention and my community of Catholic people here in Musoma will pray to Our Lady and Her Father and Her Son and Her Spouse on your behalf.

Our Friends of Musoma website is intended to be our connection to all of you.  Share this with your colleagues.

Please go to this link on our website [ www.friendsofmusoma.com ] and enter a prayer intention at the bottom of the web-page that we will add to our daily Mass intentions.

May Notre Dame … Our Lady … intercede for all of us.  And may God bless all of you.
