A Special Message from Msgr. Tom Powers, Vicar General

BRIDGEPORT— Members of the Diocese are headed to Ethiopia and Lebanon! In conjunction with Catholic Relief Services and Turning Wine Into H2O, we are sending a Diocesan delegation to Ethiopia to observe and witness clean water projects throughout the country. Msgr Powers, along with four priests from around the Diocese will join a contingent of people from the Diocese of Bridgeport, including Social Media Leader, John Grosso, on the trip to Ethiopia on October 1st.

On October 7th, Msgr. Powers and the priests will return to the Diocese, while a delegation will be going to Lebanon, to witness the work of CRS with the millions of people displaced by the violence in Syria.

“There is so much we hope to learn and accomplish on our trip, and we will be here to share it all with you during and upon our return. For now, please pray for us, pray for those that we serve, and pray for peace in our world.We’ll update you before we leave next week!” said Msgr. Powers.
