Through the generous donation of "Quick Clot" product one person's life has been made a little more comfortable. Below is the thank you note Christine & David Bolio sent to Jeff the donor.

Dear Jeff,
Thank you so much for your very generous gift of QuikClot supplies...The clinic @ Above Rocks Jamaica will be well stocked. Brother Michael is very, very careful with his valued supplies...opens 2x2's and cuts 4x4's into 2 and 3 pieces!!!
But here is a beautiful affirmation of your gift. Miss Mavis is a 81 year old woman who has breast cancer and she has opted to not receive any treatment. Her wound was draining and bleeding profusely which prevented her from leaving her home much to her disappointment and those of many people in the area. We arrived on Saturday noon and Brother and I immediately went to her home and applied a new variety of dressings. The periphery of her wound would bleed heavily when the dressing was changed and she never knew when it would soak through her dressing and clothes. The local priest offered to pick her up on his way back from celebrating Mass in another parish if she felt better on Sunday. Well who was sitting in the 2nd row at 11 AM Mass on Sunday...none other than Miss Mavis!!! It was cause for celebration for the whole church.
Thank you so much Christine and David

What else is the mission in need of these days?
rice, peas and chickens... the economy here's having an effect on kid's getting lunch
How is the best way to provide these things from the USA to jamaica?
One of two methods: direct funding of "feeding program" via:
1) F M A Office
12300 Folly Quarter Rd
Ellicott City MD 20142
2) St Mary's Church
Above Rocks P O
St Catherine
Jamaica W.I.
Either way make note: FEEDING PROGRAM. Know that every $ will be used for feeding the 100 we feed daily during the school year.
THANKS!
will do...
Just an FYI: the check Fr. Michael delivered was the promised help ... to be used for whatever is most needed.... be it the Feeding Program or whatever you need... just didn't want you to think I forgot to make good on my word via the blog here.
