Fr. Alfredo is originally from Italy, and was ordained in 1988. He studied in Chicago, majoring in Cross-Cultural Communication in Mission. He has done extensive internship with the Chinese American Community in Chicago. He visited the city of San Paulo in Brazil and worked in a poor parish on the island of St. Lucia. He also attended the ordination of brother in Cameroon, Africa, with his parents. His work with youth and young adults (i.e. giving retreats and programs, celebrating Masses at colleges) helps him to bring an awareness of the work for the Missionaries in the world. Fr. Alfredo is the current rector of the Xaverian Missionaries in Franklin, Wisconsin.
Being exclusively a foreign mission society, the Xaverian Fathers and Brothers depend greatly on proceeds from this collection. They carry out their service in Bangladesh, Brazil, Burundi, Cameroon, Chad, Columbia, the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire), France, Great Britain, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Mozambique, the Philippines, Sierra Leone, Spain, Taiwan, and the United States.
