    Here is an update on the Canadian angle of donating. the Franciscan province in Western Canada is happy to accept donations to be sent to our mission here. They currently send us a USD$15,000 a year grant in support of our Get Kids to School Programme. We are profoundly grateful, of course, to our Franciscan brothers up north. I asked where to send the donations and have not heard back. Be patient--they are moving their provincial offices from Edmonton to Cochran right around now and the friars have been on retreat this past week. So, I hope to have an answer soon come! Well, that certainly covers an expanse of time, eh?

    If I would have taken the name Sky Pilot, I would say to 2nuts4travel, "Welcome aboard!" So, I'll just say thanks for the persistence in pushing me to get the info about Canadian donations and thanks for the interest and most of all thanks for considering a gift. I am grateful! --Fadder Jimaica
