THE KNOTT AND CLARK EXPEDITION - PART #5 OF MISSION TRIP #5

TROPICAL STORM MATTHEW

Father Clark and I decided to fly over to Barbados this afternoon to be one step ahead of the storm. We think making connection to American Airlines will be much easier that trying to cut it too close with LIAT. We will stay with Bishop Gordon for two nights instead of one.

A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE ARE REALLY HELPED

STARTED BY THE CATHOLIC DIOCESE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHER CHURCHES

Jeanie Ollivierre, Chair of the Board of Directors

Yesterday, Father Clark and I had the pleasure of visiting Marion House that houses many great social service programs: parenting skills for young parents, domestic violence help, counseling (individual, marital, family and chemical dependency) court referrals and preparation for job skills for at risk young people.

This is a typical class to prepare at risk youth to enter the job market. 

FIRST MEETING OF THE LOCAL COMMITTEE

of the

CATHOLIC SECOND WIND GUILD

Fergal Redmond, Father Knott, Cecile  DaSilva, Eardley Martin  and Desmond Telesfort,    

Father Mark DeSilva had to miss this meeting because of a  monthly priest meeting. 

Last night, the local Catholic Second Wind Guild Chapter held its first meeting. They will be the group who will implement the programs sponsored by the Guild. We are working hard on getting the Pastoral Centre prepared to receive clergy and other professional volunteers.
