Material donations (updated 4/8/2023)

The Franciscans that staff the Mission live off Divine Providence. We do not have incomes and we are very reliant on material donations for our life and work.

-Supplies for the Mission’s work- Please see our Amazon wish list >>.  
This is the easiest way to donate material goods to the Mission!  

*We do NOT receive donor info from Amazon when you make a wish list purchase. If you would like acknowledgement/ confirmation we received your order, please email HERE(olamission@gmail.com). *
