Support the Life and Ministry of Nuns in Argentina
The diocese with the very long name of San Roque de Presidencia Roque Sáenz Peña is among the poorest in Argentina. It is situated in a largely undeveloped region in the north of the country, the so-called Chaco region, an area of dry woodland and savannah. The diocese has 23 parishes in an area of a little under 30,000 square miles, about the size of some European countries. There are just 28 priests here, ministering to almost 440,000 Catholics. This not only
means that for every priest there are almost 16,000 faithful, already in itself an enormous number, but also that the parishes, and the parishioners, live widely scattered from each other. Read more
