About the MSC Mission in Colombia
In 1969, MSC from the USA began working in the parish of Santa Margarita Maria, which is located in a poor, working class section of Bogotá. Since then, the MSC in Colombia have been involved in a variety of pastoral activities such as youth programs, teaching, family enrichment programs and social services. For instance, the MSC have a long history of volunteering at Fundación Vida Nueva (New Life Foundation), which works with prostitutes and their children to help them break the cycle of prostitution. MSC seminarians teach catechism classes to the children there.
