I have graciously received permission to post an appeal on behalf of the Traditional Dominican fathers and sisters of Avrille, France. I am a Tertiary with these Dominicans and have learned of their current financial crisis.
DOMINICANS OF AVRILLÉ NEED OUR HELP
Sitting by and watching everything for which we have fought for so long seeming to fall down around us can invoke a feeling of helpless frustration. If you really long to do something material to help in the fight for Traditional Catholicism, I have a timely suggestion for you.
The Traditional Dominican fathers of Avrillé, France (and their cloistered sisters who live nearby) are in urgent need of financial support. These strong stalwarts of Traditional Catholicism need our help. They have had at least one preaching/retreat event cancelled by those who shall remain nameless.
To quote one of the fathers:
We have literally run out of all funds, and yet we still have to keep up with monthly utilities payments, salaries for the school personnel, taxes, etc... With the economic crisis, donations have become rare and many families are not able to pay the tuition for our schools. We are happy to be all the more dependent on Providence, and we offer joyously our privations for the spiritual and material benefit of our benefactors (for whom we pray every day).
