Feeding the Hungry

Sunday, October 12, the Sisters at Residence Despins were asked to make sandwiches yet again for the Immaculate Conception Drop In located in the poorest area of the city. If a parish is unable to come through or there is no parish at all, the Sisters are called upon. Sisters then call upon their friends in the residence (Grey nuns and lay people) to assist them in making sandwiches for about five hundred people. Sadly, the numbers at the Drop In have increased from about 250 to 450 over the past few years. The sandwiches are picked up, delivered, and served by teams of generous individuals, some of whom are our SNJM Associates.

The hungry are fed and God smiles. – Marylyn Gibney
