Makeshift Housing Project

This weekend the priests will be talking about the necessity of us funding our on going commitment to fund college scholarships for the Haciendita Uno Community in El Salvador. There will be a second collection this weekend to raise those needed funds. We currently have some cas...h and pledges in place for the program; however, we need $33,000 to complete the program as it exists to date. In order to keep us focused on this fund raising campaign, Deacon Don will move into the make shift housing created on the parish grounds to remind us that we are trying to prevent any of our sister community member’s from having to live in this manner. While the homes in Haciendita Uno are not this primitive, it is very common to see places like this in the urban areas or desolate rural areas. If our friends are forced to move to the city to look for wok they may be living in these types of housing. Please support the parish commitment to this community as best you can. Deacon Don will be HOME in the evenings and on the weekend until we have been successful in raising the funds. Feel free to stop by and sit with him for a while at night or on the weekend.
