Jon Taitt (centre) with Gaude (left) and Christopher (right), Kndege Parish.
Jon Taitt is a volunteer with XVP*, who returned in October '08 from working in the
Kndege parish
& school for two years. He was helping to develop an ambitious programme that
allowed him to accompany two or three young people from that parish to
World Youth Day in Sydney, and to attend the
MAGiS'08 event. Since we
were tasked with the UK co-ordination of
MAGiS'08, it seemed fitting to
support these young people and, even, to build up a friendship with this Jesuit
mission. Your
generous
donations, once again, made a huge difference.
