ME NEITHER
Fannie Mae's annual Walk for the Homeless is right around the corner and you can sign up or sponsor someone walking. Many parishes in DC participate by sponsoring teams. There is one at Holy Trinity (check the on line bulletin at http://www.holytrinitydc.org/ and Saint Matthews walks with the Catholic Charities crowd, to name just a few organizations with team sponsorship. Any questions may be directed to Jay Brown, (202-281-2034, email- jason.brown@catholiccharitiesdc.org) the Program Manager for Catholic Charities. Come on-you need a little exercise before putting on the pumpkin pudding pounds.
Also, if you find yourself in the nation's lovely capital on Nov.7th, Saint Matthews (the downtown Cathedral at 17th and Rhode Island near Connecticut) hosts a Holiday Treats for the homeless meal. You can help by serving, making, or donating food, or dropping designated bucks in the bucket for this purpose. It is especially rewarding to meet and greet the homeless neighbors-the least of those among us- with a spot of cheer on a cold November day. The link for Saint Matthews is just to the right on this blog.
