The Medical Missionaries of Mary are an international congregation of Women Religious who are coming to Transfiguration Parish on June 29-30, 2019 to invite you to support their missionary work. Sister Sheila Campbell, MMM will be telling you about their work in Africa and Latin America bringing God’s healing love to our wounded world. This is done by providing health care as doctors, nurses, surgeons, midwives, administrators, social workers, and more. The focus of their ministry is particularly to mothers and children and those on the margins of society. Working through community based health care projects and clinics to tertiary level teaching hospitals they bring health care to those who would not otherwise have access to it. Care and treatment is provided to all who come seeking it. The Medical Missionaries of Mary cannot do this without your prayers and support. Sister Campbell will speak at all Masses on June 29-30, 2019, and the second collection will support their missionary efforts through the Diocesan Society for the Propagation of the Faith. Thank you for your generosity. You can visit the Medical Missionaries of Mary at: Website: www.mmmworldwide.org Facebook: www.facebook.com/ medicalmissionariesofmaryusa
