THANK YOU TO ALL who helped with our week of hosting Families Moving Forward. We had a really good week. Please pray for those who are without homes. It is so difficult to live this way.

WE WILL BEGIN serving Peace Coffee in December. This coffee is a fair trade product. Fair trade is built on right relationships between consumers and producers, based in human respect, economic justice, and global solidarity. We will also be selling bags of coffee all month after the weekend Masses. These would make great gifts for yourself and others. Using Peace Coffee in the church and school helps to make us more keenly aware of others in the world who work very hard and do not receive just compensation. Several parishioners have done thorough work to bring us to this place of being a Peace Coffee community. Deep gratitude is felt.

STORE TO DOOR needs financial donors and volunteers to take orders, shop, and deliver groceries to those who are homebound. Store to Door helps over 1,300 elderly and disabled people in the Twin Cities Metro who want to continue to live in their own homes. For more information, please call (651) 642-1892. Thank you!

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:

"Words can do harm,
think before you speak."
