Spring and Summer Works of Mercy

Thanks to those candidates who helped with the Holy Week and Easter set up in church.  The Liturgy Committee was very impressed!  And, don't forget to journal about your service. 

There are still things to sign up for as we move further into spring and summer.

• We have helped a refugee family from Congo to resettle in Chicago.  They arrived in February.  They now have a baby girl due to be born in June!  We are throwing them a baby shower for necessities on April 28. (Syrya, the mother, has never had a shower, but she admitted that she had 'seen one on TV.')
  Go here to RSVP to attend and/or to decorate. 
  Go here to volunteer for bringing food or baby necessities.
   
• The registration form for the youth leaders for Vacation Bible School is available. It is tons of fun and we can use lots of help! VBS is July 30 through August 3 and set up / decoration is the week before.

• Join a group to go to Feed My Starving Children. The info and sign up for May are here.  For the July date, go here.
   
• Become a junior counselor at St. John Brebeuf Summer Camp.  The info and the sign up is here.

Besides these special events,  look for other opportunities to help in your family, your school and your neighborhood . Also,  the spiritual works of mercy  are just things that might happen in the course of a day. 

You can bookmark this link to post journal of mercy entries easily for these events or any other service that you do.
