Last week 11 young people and I spent 15 hours serving the community of St Ben’s. These young people gathered for 4 hours for 4 days. We cleaned the church and worked in the school using our gifts of enthusiasm, energy and strength. We talked about the corporal and spiritual works of mercy before we made lunches and cookies for the St Ben’s lunch program and we visited Feed My Starving Children in Schaumburg to help feed those who are hungry in our world. I’m proud of the work they did and their commitment to using their gifts and time, to make a difference.
