Our friends in Ecuador have shared some very special pictures of their September, as the newly ordained Fr Diego stepped out to celebrate his first Masses in the indigenous communities following his ordination in August.

A picture speaks a thousand words, and this is certainly true of these wonderful photographs! Fr. Diego’s love for his mission shines through, as does the joy of the communities he is celebrating with. Fr. Diego will be leading the youth ministry programmes on our mission in Ecuador, and his dedication to young people and their journeys is an inspiration to behold.
“Thank you very much, our dear friends, for all the help you always provide us,” writes Ecuadorian Section Leader Fr Marcelo Campoverde MSC.

The next adventure coming up for the young people on our Ecuador mission is their autumn Chevalier camping session, when they come together on an outdoor pursuits camping trip, learning practical skills and nurturing the ability to work together as a group to create a positive experience for all involved. We’re already looking forward to seeing photos from the trip, and in the meantime, we wish Fr Diego, Fr Marcelo, and the Ecuador mission all the blessings of this bountiful season!
