Helping Myanmar

Dear Frens,

I have been in the Catholic school system all my life and the religious Sisters have been a great blessing in my life.

Whether we , convent girls, were then believers or not, the presence of Sisters hovering over us, taking care of us, just having their presence in our lives whilst growing up have made a definite difference in introducing God and love.

Myanmar is poor in many ways and the people there especially the children and youths will benefit so much as we did, to have Sisters ministering to them and devoting their lives to them in ways big and small.

Project Kyrie have presented to the Canossian Sisters $23,700 yesterday for the formation and living expenses of 2 Myanmar novices to be in Singapore training to be nuns for the next 2 years. After the 2 years, they will return to Myanmar to serve the community there.

This has been a wonderful privilege for us to share and participate as 2 women offer their lives to bring Glory of God to a country where Christ is not widely known.

We wish to thank Joseph, Maria, Esther, Susanna, Susan, Francesca for making this possible.

May we also pray that the novices Maria Ja Awn and Antonia Mya Mya Lone be the face of Christ to many, as they answer the call of our Father to lay their lives for the poor.

God Bless,
Mill

Sharing what we have with Poland!

Dear Frens,

I just got back from my pilgrimage vacation in Europe.

It was great fun and everything was perfect. We had a smooth one month trip exploring four countries, namely Poland, UK, Jerusalem and Lourdes.

Anyone who wants any tips, just give me a call. We managed to squeeze in a little mission work along our journey. A small tea party for under privileged kids. Thank you Alex Teng for providing the goodies. The kids had a great time!

Economy is also getting expensive and to save petrol, the Canossian sisters in Krakow cycle to school when they can. We needed to trade in their 15 year old bicycle for a new reliable and safe one. Many thanks to Peter Twang for donating this bicycle. I am sure it will last for another 10 years at least.

It's amazing how we, friends of Project Kyrie always manage to step in and step up to all the impromptu needs needed by the poor and those who serve the poor.

Recently, I heard this and it is really true that first we have to open our hearts to receive God's love then love for others will flow through you. So everyone, have a happy weekend and keep receiving the overflowing love that God have for each of us.

God Bless,
Mill
