Costancia , our good friend and Maryknoll Affiliate from Mwanza, Tanzania has blessed us with her presence over the past year. But, at the end of July she returns home much to the relief of her children, family and friends.

In May, Costanica received her certificate in Spirituality from the Sophia Institute at Holy Names University. She will be using her new insights as she continues her work in holistic healing through the Capacitar Program in her work with street kids, HIV/AIDS patients and others in Mwanza.
We are grateful to God for the time that we have had with her and all that she's shared with us about Tanzania. Not to mention the miracles she has done in our community garden and the ugali and other African food she has shared with us.
Costancia has greatly enjoyed her American safari and looks forward to the ongoing relationship that has developed between her Maryknoll Affiliate group in Mwanza and the East Bay Affiliate group.
Please join us to celebrate the gift that Costancia is and bid her farewell with our blessings.
