Sister Mary Claude Gadd is working on a website to raise awareness about the Church’s ministries to children in Papua New Guinea.
“Thus far I have identified close to twenty special Programs being carried out across PNG by Catholic individuals or organisations on behalf of disadvantaged and needy children,” Mary Claude said in an interview with the media office of the The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands.
“The plan is to allocate, on the website, a page or more to each of these activities and organisations.”
She added that “the website will also have a small space with contact information related to that particular organisation or activity. People out there might be interested and wish to contact those concerned and even donate to support that activity.”
Mary Claude says the website will “showcase to the world Catholic activities being carried out in PNG on behalf of our most vulnerable children.
“We hope to create something interesting, inspiring and hopefully beautiful as well for the world to view.”
The website, http://www.catholicchildren’s ministrypng.org.pg/should be operational by late October.
Sister Mary Claude, who is originally from Texas, has worked in Papua New Guinea since 1986.
She is a member of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and has experience in education and hosptial ministry
