Covid-19 appeal from Ilula

Message from the Ilula Orphanage Program: Sadly the virus is now raging through Tanzania and it has arrived in Ilula. We have heard shocking stories of lack of oxygen and sometimes also electricity in the hospital – people are dying everyday. The 8 outside committees are trying try to raise money to cover the cost of health insurance for all the staff.
 From the refreshments served after Sunday Mass, Annette and her team used to collect about €4,000 a year for health insurance for the children in Ilula – before Covid of course.

Appeal for donations: In the current crisis it is crucial that the costs of the health insurance continue to be met. Any financial donations would be most appreciated and can be made directly to : IOP Luxembourg, LU27 0019 3955 9582 3000

If you would like more information please email IOP directly: contact@iopluxembourg.org

Children’s Liturgy online – 28 February 2021

In today’s Gospel, Jesus takes three of his disciples up a mountain.

There, they see a bright light and hear a voice telling them to listen to Jesus.

The disciples realise that this is a special moment.

What does this moment mean for us?
