International
Outreach Our international outreach began a few years ago when our former Director of Outreach Ted Lewis and his wife Mona spent eighteen months in Zambia, Africa with Catholic Relief Services. Sister Krista of St.Charles Academy in Solwezi, Zambia, emailed us in 2006 to tell us that the Diocese of Solwezi was going to close the school and asked if we could help. We promised to send $2,000 a year and sent a letter affirming our pledge to the Bishop of Solwezi. The diocese kept the school open and we have helped to support the school since then. Since 2007, St.Timothy Parish has sponsored a yard sale in August to raise funds for the school.
SHARING ON THE PROGRESS OF ST. CHARLES SCHOOL Friends, we feel that we need to share with you about the progress of the school because you are our partners and companions in this mission. We are able to minister to these children whom God has entrusted to our care with the help of some generous people like you. Please continue sharing God’s love to others.
Thank you very much, and may God bless you and your families. Sister Krista Namio, MMB The following letters explain much about the school and its students and the support from St. Timothy Parish's has impacted both. May 2009 Letter June 2008 Letter
