The Crisis in Haiti

This weekend, as we remember Martin Luther King Jr., who gave his very life for the dignity of all people, we are also asked to respond to the monumental need in Haiti. We cannot all go there to comfort the dying and the mourning. We cannot all go there to hold neew orphhans or serve meals to the hungry.. We cannot all go there to rebuild roads and houses. The need is unfanthomable and immeasurable. We are overwhelmed.

But, there are those who will act in our stead, who will be out outstretched hands. We will not be asked to lay down out lives for out suffering neighbors, but we are obliged to act in whatever ways we can. We can pray. We can donate. We can volunteer at Feed My Starving Children. How will we bbe called upon, as we leave this place, "to love and serve one another as we love and serve the Lord"?

Focus your prayer this week on but a single person, just like yourself:

• your age
• your gender
• in a similar situation to your own.

Walk with them in their pain and loss; through their fear and anxiety.

God will show each of us the way we can make a difference

The Giving Tree 2009

The weather is turning cold and once again our thoughts are turning toward Christmas and those who could use a helping hand. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is sponsoring the Giving Tree that will be up in Garvey Hall this weekend. Pick an angel off the tree, purchase a present for the child indicated, wrap it, tie the angel on it and return to church by December 6th. For those of you who don't have time to shop, we have angels that suggest a donation of $20 to pay for the food baskets that accompany the gifts we bring on our Christmas delivery.

Delivery of these presents and the food baskets is set for Saturday, December 12th. Please consider donating a few hours of your time on that day to help in the process. We meet at Garvey Hall at 10 a.m. to pick up the gifts for the families on your route. We then go over to the Pillsbury House on 35th & Chicago to pick up the food baskets. Most people are finished delivering by noon! For further information or to volunteer, call Judy Aubert @ 612-729-3416 or Dorothy Pitheon @ 612-825-3927.
