Hi! My name is Gia and I'm currently a student at Dalhousie University located in Nova Scotia, Canada.

As some of you may have seen through my online profile (https://cco.ca/mission_participants/giana-tomas/), I have been selected among several students across Canada to travel with Catholic Christian Outreach (CCO), a university student movement, to Mexico City this May!

We will be teaming up with Hope of the Poor in visiting and "...bringing the light of Christ to the darkest mission fields...and working with the poorest of the poor, and the ones forgotten and rejected by society ( http://hopeofthepoor.org/)". Not only that, but we will also be going around universities to spread the gospel and share the Ultimate Relationship ( https://cco.ca/resources/ultimate-relationship/) booklet in the hopes of inviting individuals to get to know Christ on a personal level. Lastly, we will be visiting the renowned site of Our Lady of Guadalupe!

Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, I am fortunate to have been influenced and raised with solid Christian foundation and practices, and I would like nothing more than to share with others what I have learned, as well as to inspire university students to build a solid community similar to what I've found in CCO. I am grateful to have the opportunity to do so in this mission trip to Mexico!

With that, we, missionary students are responsible for raising funds that will cover flights, accommodations, food, and transportation; I ask that you please consider helping us out by making a donation as well as by keeping us in your prayers!

Thank you very much.
