It's Mission Appeals Season
During the summer, Xaverians in the USA experience “church life in the outskirts”, with lots of miles on the road, in parishes never visited before. It’s the
Mission Appeal season!
You might meet Fr. Joe Matteucig, Superior of Holliston, sharing his experience in Taiwan, or Fr. Tony Lalli on his beloved Brazil,
or Fr. Alfredo Turco sharing stories about his brother in Congo, or Fr.
Dominic, at Xavier Knoll, sharing his experience in
Bangladesh.
Fr. Carl Chudy, our Provincial,
is not excused from it, with his 13 years of Philippines he plans to give
a hand to Fr. Frank in the New Jersey Area. And Frs. Lino and Pascal
take care of the mission appeals of St. Louis MO and Ohio. We thank
you for welcoming us in your parishes, as you would welcome ... a
missionary.

at Xavier Knoll in Franklin has seen the goodness of our friends
who volunteer hours to make this event a good one, so that we can show our
mission support. See 70 photos of this event. Our next event
and gathering of friends is the Mission Banquet, scheduled during Mission
Month, on Oct. 17.
At Fatima
Shrine, we are in full swing with the 13th of the Month gatherings
during the Summer.
See who is scheduled to preside at these
spiritual gatherings at the Shrine, Haven of Prayer.
Our Theology Students just concluded their

Pastoral Education at area's Hospitals.
