FEEDING THE HUNGRY

(completed as a family)

Our focus during the months of November and December is food insecurity. So many people in our community suffer from not having enough food to feed their family. Catholic Social Teaching based on Scripture instructs us to care for those who suffer and to assist when someone needs help. So for November and December, consider what you can do, as a family, to help those who are food insecure. Will you go shopping as a family and buy items for a family’s Christmas meal? Will you go shopping as a family and buy food to help stock a food pantry? What about volunteering at a soup kitchen or homeless shelter? There are so many possibilities! Decide, as a family, what you can do to make a difference this holiday season for those who have less. Remember, this should take a minimum of two hours for grades 1-5 and two and a half hours for grades 6-10. This is due by December 30. Please be sure to send a picture of what your family has done to adarcangelo@syrdio.org to receive the credit hours! 

 

“Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me”

-Matthew 25: 34-35

If you cannot feed one hundred people, then just feed one.”
