God is our defender
“But let all who take refuge in thee rejoice, let them ever sing for joy; and do thou defend them, that those who love thy name may exult in thee”. Psalm 5:11 RSV. Dear Friends, Let us be thankful that God loves us and has made us heirs to His kingdom. Therefore, we should trust in God , rejoicing always because God is our defender. He makes all things good and in Him we find eternal joy.

About the Missionary Child Association (MCA)
In 1843, French Bishop Charles Deforbin Janson shared his long time dream to help the children of the Catholic missions with his friend Pauline Jaricot. She had already founded the society for the propagation of the faith which supports the Church’s missionary effort. The French children took up this great work and from then on the work of missionary kids has spread across the world. Today, it is in 140 countries and it helps make Jesus known to children all over the world.
