On October 16 and 17, Sr. Beatrice LODA gave a testimony of her mission in Vanuatu to the Cuore Amico group in Brescia and received an Award for the mission of the Sisters in Vanuatu.
"I received, together with two other missionaries, the Award from Cuore Amico an association in Brescia which supports missionaries in poor countries.
This news was a surprise and an immense joy for me, as the money received will contribute to the reconstruction of the Nabanga hostel in Port Vila, which was destroyed by the 2024 earthquake.
"My joy is all the greater because many young women from different islands will be able to continue or start their professional training in this hostel.
I am deeply grateful to the Cuore Amico Association, which works to ensure that Italian missionaries are accompanied in the mission that the Lord has entrusted to them: to make his love known to those in need.”
