Help for the Helpless

In America it's easy to forget that some of the world does not live with the many privileges we have access to. It is certainly hard to imagine life without computers, cell phones, television and vehicles, but imagine a life without a roof over your head, education, and the seemingly simple amenities of plumbing and fresh water. In the district of Kahama in Tanzania, Africa, there are villages that experience the exquisite poverty mentioned above. They don't know the benefits of the average lives our Americans lead, but they can experience our help. Over the course of the past two years, a community outreach effort has been made to provide housing, education, and medical aid to the people of the villages and towns in Kahama, Tanzania. We are a missionary group founded out of St. Cyril and Methodius parish in Sterling Heights, Michigan, and we have made it our mission to provide for these people what we ourselves enjoy here.
