This Music Directors is a good thing that we are not considered mission territory although we are a mission standing St Ignatius: alone. But all the other regions are mission territories. What is nice is that all the monies we collect for the mission all stays here in the Caribbean Islands. Last year we collected almost Mr. Simon Donoghue $20,000 in all the collections that went to missions, the Holy Land, Peter’s Pence, and the collection Christ the Redeemer: we sent for New Orleans after their hurricane.
