We have so many reasons to rejoice this Christmas. And perhaps the greatest reason is our compassionate friends — people like you who stand beside us, making our work possible each and every day.

It has been another difficult year and so many people around the world are still struggling. Yet, I am comforted by your kindness, which prevails and reminds us that a better future is possible.

Together with more than 30,000 Salesian missionaries in over 130 countries, you help make a real difference in the lives of the poorest of the poor. And that’s a true gift, unmatched by any other. Thank you for being such an important member of our Salesian Missions family!

Please consider making a year-end gift today. May God bless you for caring.
