AFRICA

On Thursday, March 19th fifteen parishioners from Saint John the Baptist Catholic Church will travel to Africa to begin establishing a Sister Parish relationship with a Catholic Church in Ghana. This wonderful opportunity has come to us through a relationship with Saint Joseph parish in Mamponteng Ghana Africa. Our missionaries will serve those most in need through hard work, relationship-building, and just being present to those we encounter. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is expensive, and our team of youth and adults have been working very hard to raise the money necessary to go. Your prayerful & generous support is requested to help our missionaries realize their goal of spreading the Love of the Gospel to those in Ghana.

Each missionary is responsible for raising roughly $2,500 each to cover the costs of airfare, lodging, and in-country transportation. To do this, they spend time bagging groceries at Cub Foods, serving pizzas at Pizza Ranch, helping out in the local community, and much more! They work hard to raise money, but that is for many that is a lot of money to raise! Your support is GREATLY needed to make our trip a reality.
