The Red Box Project is an initiative committed to supporting the Church in South America. SAMS Ireland is dedicated to resourcing local people through training and seed funding.
SAMS is thankful for the emerging opportunities and possibilities. It is within this context of growth that Cecilia Valdiviezo from Argentina has joined the SAMS team working as the Red Box Co-ordinator.
Cecilia’s teaching background, her commitment to community development and her passion to serve God have enabled numerous openings for service.
“What a privilege to experience first-hand the Red Box Project! Through an attitude of servanthood expressed in practical ways, something of significance is evolving through this initiative and it’s making an imprint upon the lives of individuals and communities.”
SAMS Ireland Development Officer
