Chiapas and Tabasco, Mexico have suffered tremendously in the past couple of years. The combination of the pandemic and unexpected natural disasters has stripped these two communities of essential needs, spiking homelessness and unemployment. While being deprived of basic needs, it can be easy to lose hope and become spiritually empty.
We are on a mission to supply 25 families with chickens, and the resources needed to raise the animals which will become an ongoing source of food and income!
TOGETHER, THESE FAITHFUL SERVANTS HAVE...
Prepared 371 parishioners to receive the sacraments
Opened 9 Catechetical centers
Secured food donations for the poor
Helped 20 non-practicing Catholics return to the faith
Made 314 visits to the sick
And even opened their homes to the homeless
Now, Andrés and Leonel are relying on our support to provide the resources that will transform Chiapas and Tabasco into self-sustaining communities that know the love of Christ, in return, they will share their husbandry experience with each community, spread the Gospel of Christ, and pray for our Catholic World Mission family of supporters.
PROJECT UPDATES
Hens have Arrived!
October 2022
Hens have arrived! Thanks to your faithful generosity, the families of Chiapas and Tabasco, Mexico have new livestock and care supplies to jumpstart their journey of self-sustainability.
Following unexpected flooding and loss, the gift of livestock arrived when these communities needed it most. Now, each family has found hope in a new beginning and brighter future that is brought by a reliable source of food and income.
"Dear brothers, today I am very happy because I received good news. I thank CWM and their benefactors because you sent me 10 hens, a package of food, and vitamins far the hens. This help came to give us hope. Friends of CWM, thank you so much." - Maria del Rosario Díaz de Dios
Also, thanks to you, our dedicated lay missionaries (ETCs), Andrés and Leonel, are taken care of so they can continue to train families in husbandry and share Gospel of Christ.
Because of your support, we are hopeful that Chiapas and Tabasco will be able to lift themselves out of physical and spiritually poverty and start a new path towards self-sustainability.
