A request from Charity Alive member Andreiona Williams went out to SCNs in the Nazareth and Louisville areas for school supplies and backpacks for children in the West End of Louisville in collaboration with Emmanuel Baptist Church. The response was overwhelming with $1160 in money and supplies that were able to fill over 120 backpacks and then extra supplies to fill more bags! The donations were distributed during the Emmanuel Vacation Bible School/Back to School Bash event (see photo). The generosity of the Sisters, Associates and Nazareth Village residents was such an example of collaboration for the good of all. We pray that the students will be off to a great start this new school year.
Sisters in the garden
On a warm spring afternoon, the Sisters at Caritas Apartments got together to plant patio tomatoes and a variety of easy-to-care-for porch plants to brighten up their small porches.
