Friends through the darkness

July 11, 2013 by Cross Catholic Blog

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.

Blind chess?

Catholics in Vietnam pray for America

September 13, 2011 by Cross Catholic Blog

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.

With a thankful heart

November 23, 2010 by Cross Catholic Blog

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men, for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things. ~ Psalm 107:8-9

Thanks from the field

November 18, 2010 by Cross Catholic Blog

Throughout the year we receive heart-felt thank you letters and cards from the projects we support around the world. Since Thanksgiving is right around the corner, we thought now was a great time to share some of them with you.
