Are you looking to volunteer for a mission?

Fidesco responds to a real need, identified by local populations. To serve with Fidesco is to put oneself at the service of the Church and of the poorest, in an attitude of humility and availability.

Students doing for a gap year, young professionals, families, singles, retirees… Fidesco is for everyone! If the adventure of the mission appeals to you, take a first step: contact us! dleblond@fidescousa.org

The clock is ticking and we close registrations on March 17, 2024 for this summer’s send-off.

The Blanchard family has arrived in Huaycan, Peru for their mission. We can imagine their adjusting to this new environment as they settle into this new country. Their children will be attending school with the local children, so their Spanish will be perfect by Christmas. Sophie and Stephane are scoping out their mission and we pray the family to have courage and fortitude!

There is a lot of preparing and packing of suitcases for the Blanchard family who fly out this Saturday, September 2, 2023. They will follow in the footsteps of the Le Guen family at Colegio San Francisco de Asis, Huaycan, Peru.  Once they settle in with their three children, Sophie will work with the bakery/pastry workshop and Stephane will teach English and French in the school which goes from kindergarten through high school and includes vocational training. Keep them in your thoughts, prayers and you can donate to cover their mission costs. Thank you for your support.

A huge shout-out to Eléonor and Ghislain who have just completed two years of service near Lima, Peru where their children were very much a part of the mission.  Fidesco is happy to announce that Sophie & Stephane, with their children, will be heading to the Huaycan mission in September. Do consider helping this work through prayer and financial support.

Sincere thanks to Drew Geiger who just completed two years of service in Chikowa, Zambia working with at the Chikowa Youth Development Centre, a technical school which is run by the Comboni  Missionaries of the Heart of Jesus. Fidesco is pleased to be able to send a new Fidesco volunteer to this mission in a few weeks so the Drew’s efforts will have a continuum. Do consider helping this work through financial support and prayers.

Here are their faces with the Fidesco support team surrounding these 84 volunteers for 2023. Please consider supporting these volunteers and their missions and you can be assured that they are ABSOLUTELY making a difference in the lives of those they serve. https://www.fidescousa.org/how-you-can-help/how-you-can-make-a-donation/  I thank you for them.
