 To put yourself in the place of the children in Haiti, please follow this link to a video clip on YouTube with Karen Young singing “Nobody’s Child.” It’s nice music and conveys a heartfelt message.

Please donate your spent printer cartridges.

What do you do with your ink cartridges when they are empty? Do you throw them away or do you recycle? Our church is recycling them and in return we are getting funds to send to our outreach and mission commitments. If you do throw away your cartridges, please contact me and let me send you a self addressed stamped envelope or drop them in the green box on the display case in the parish house so that you can recycle your cartridges for us. All you will have to do is drop the cartridge in an envelope or box and the recycle company will automatically credit our account. Thanks so much for your help. It is greatly appreciated.
