Lent invites us into deeper prayer and gratitude as we reflect on Christ’s journey to Easter. This holy season reminds us to live with joy and spiritual longing, just as St. Benedict encouraged us to prepare our hearts for the Feast of Feasts.
This year’s appeal focuses on the growing needs of House St. Bernard in Kipili, Tanzania — a mission foundation of Holy Spirit Abbey that serves young families and children. As families settle in this beautiful but rapidly changing region, there is a pressing need for a kindergarten and qualified teachers where children can learn, play, and grow in both education and faith.
Kindergarten teachers are urgently needed to help lay a strong foundation for these children’s futures. Your support, through prayer and, if you are able, a financial gift, will help educate teachers, provide nutritious meals, and ensure a safe space for learning and community growth.
Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of the young, the vulnerable, and their families. Thank you for your generosity and for keeping this mission and its people in your prayers.
