Before Sunday

Intertwine Interfaith with us on Saturday, November 5 for a morning of loving work. Please reserve your spot with [email protected]; 314-330-0629

 

We are looking for 8 people to help straighten up and organize items at

Baitulmal - House of Goods... 5911 Southwest Ave, St. Louis, MO 63139

 

Noticing a dire need in the community and city, two police chaplains and members of the Islamic Foundation of Saint Louis got together and started a non-profit organization called Baitulmal, which translates to House of Goods or Wealth.

 

The basic premise was to collect items that would then be given to any person in need who walked through the door, free. The response was so great that several businesses donated to this cause. One business owner donated brand new shoes from her shoe business, others donated items such as rice, oil, flour. In five months, we had so many things we had to purchase a new warehouse site.

 

Meet at Baitulmal at 9:30am. We will work for approx two hours.

 

**

 

We are seeking 10 people to prep & serve a meal to local residents in Florissant at

Project Downtown... 6809 W Florissant Ave, St. Louis, MO 63136

 

 

Changing Lives, One Meal at a Time

Project Downtown’s mission is to provide essential services to unhoused individuals and impoverished communities in the St. Louis area because every person - all creeds, backgrounds and races - has a right to quality food, shelter, and support.

 

Meet at Project Downtown at 10am sharp. We will work for approx three hours.

Not able to join us on Saturday morning? Consider dine-in or carry-out meal at a minority owned restaurant in St Louis (or wherever you are that weekend).

 

The Intertwiners volunteering at Baitulmal might head to Yapi Mediterranean Subs and Sandwiches in their brand-new location at 17 S. Vandeventer, St Louis MO 63108... the owners are the lovely people who run Baitulmal

Just over a minute – a very quick overview of All Saints Day

Ponder


Deepening your connection to God, in you and around you, do not be afraid to feel the love, the joy, and also the pain that are present. Don’t be afraid to have a heart and to risk breaking your heart. Feel into it all. ~Adam Bucko

Humor

Why are trees so carefree and easy going?

Because every fall, they let loose.


Why did the scarecrow win a Nobel Prize?

She was outstanding in her field.


Why did the tree decide to start taking art classes?

She wanted to branch out.
