Did you know that hearty soups and tomato soup are a year-round staple of those trying to make ends meet? Think about that while you are shopping...just one extra can for the poor...place it in the box inside the entrance of the Church Hall (to the right...in front of the Conference room).  “Christ has no body now on earth but yours...no hands but yours, no feet but yours...Yours are the eyes through which to look out...Christ's compassion to the world..” - St. Teresa of Avila
