More Than A Meal

Dear Friend in Christ,

One of the Miles Jesu apostolates is helping the poor people living on the streets of Rome near St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City. The Miles Jesu Women’s community in Rome visits many of them regularly, bringing them a warm, home-cooked meal or sandwich, fresh fruit, and a drink. Geraldine, MJ, tells us, “During this Jubilee Year we meet more homeless people in Vatican Square living in tents or carrying their luggage.

Some of them like to talk about their situations and difficulties on the street, especially the women. We try to listen to them, advise them, support them, and pray for them. They need someone to listen to them and they are very grateful for our time and attention in addition to the hot meal we bring every week. It is only through the generosity of each of you that this apostolate is possible. THANK YOU!”

Please help the Miles Jesu Missions, such as our outreach for the poor in Rome, today! Your sacrifice of a one-time gift or monthly pledge truly makes all the difference. We take our benefactors seriously in Miles Jesu, so don’t forget to include your prayer petitions as well. We pray with gratitude for you and your loved ones during our daily Masses, our holy hours, and rosaries because the Miles Jesu Missions depend upon the Providence of God through people like you.
