Friends through the darkness

July 11, 2013 by Cross Catholic Outreach

Helen Keller once wrote, “Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.” Cross Catholic Outreach is working with the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary to meet the needs of blind Vietnamese girls. Despite their disability, the girls are learning many ways to interact with each other, to enjoy life together and to contribute to their communities.

Catholics in Vietnam pray for America

September 13, 2011 by Cross Catholic Outreach

When America remembered the tenth anniversary of 9/11 last weekend, I recalled something a nun in Vietnam said to me several years ago. I had been shadowing her as she visited very poor children in rural areas, as well as children with AIDS, deaf children, and undocumented children of migrant workers who have the odds stacked against them from birth.

May 19, 2011 by Cross Catholic Outreach

The handicapped Filipino girl glowed as she was brought out on stage in a little white dress and pink bow. People often talk about getting their “fifteen minutes of fame,” and this was hers.

Christ at the center

May 17, 2011 by Cross Catholic Outreach

It’s not often that I hear someone ask whether they should have flown west instead of east to visit our office. But when you live on the opposite side of the world, it’s a valid question. Cross Catholic partner Ruth Callanta stopped in this week to promote her Christ-centered approach to promoting economic development among the poor in the Philippines, and to thank us for our support.
