Ongoing progress in India and Guatemala led the highlights for CRS Metuchen in 2007 and provide part of the hope for 2008. In India, the CRS Metuchen team closed the door on projects relating to the Christmas 2004 tsunami, while opening a new door to disaster mitigation and economic development. In Guatemala, Metuchen diocesan youth and a single parish came forth as new actors in our diocesan global partnership with the Santa Rosa Diocese. |
