Help for Benjamin, a blind man living in extreme poverty.

The start of the next phase of construction of the St John Paul II Shrine in Antigua.

The SMOM Embassy in Antigua and Barbuda has commenced the next phase of construction of the St John Paul II Shrine. Volunteer construction engineers from Poland, working in collaboration with the embassy, were on the island. Together with Ambassador Przemysław Häuser-Schöneich and First Secretary Jakub Potrzebowski, they carried out a site inspection and the necessary measurements and assessments of the dilapidated church, which is ultimately intended to become a sanctuary. The measurements and assessments carried out are essential for drawing up the renovation and construction plan. Containers of building materials and construction equipment will be sent from Poland to Antigua as early as May. The head of the construction team is Mr Krzysztof Seredyński, owner and CEO of the Polish construction company NEXX. The project coordinator on behalf of the diocese in Antigua is Father Lawrence Malama, parish priest of the Cathedral of the Holy Family in Saint John. The main donors to the project are the SMOM Embassy in Antigua and Barbuda and Caritas of the Archdiocese of Poznań. The project is being carried out jointly by the SMOM Embassy and the Diocese of Saint John’s-Basseterre in Antigua.

Easter Soup Kitchen for People in Need.

On Holy Saturday, volunteers from the Order of Malta, in collaboration with the SMOM Embassy, distributed hot meals to people in need throughout Antigua. This was an important gesture of solidarity and support for those in need, enabling them to celebrate Easter with dignity.
