the mustard seed?

SHOES FOR KIDS PART 2
Hello St Sylvester Parish,
You might remember me from a few years back; I
collected new & gently used shoes. If you don’t, my
nonprofit organization, Shoes for Kids, collects shoes for
kids in need in the Santa Rosa Schools.The response
from St Sylvester two years ago was overwhelming, just
from this parish alone we collected 87 pairs of shoes!
Because the response was wonderful, I have decided to
do it again. I hope we can collect at least 90 pairs of
shoes. Maybe 100? Do you think we can do it? I hope so!
Requirements:
NEW or GENTLY used
SIZES that will fit kids grades k –8
TURN in starting June 7th
Thanks , Miranda Young Troop 907
Our Community Yoga class will be collecting
donations for The Navarre Pregnancy Help
Center, also known as Life Inc, for the whole
month of June. This non profit organization
provides many services and resources to
pregnant ladies in our area. They provide free
pregnancy tests, educational resources and
referrals to medical providers if necessary.
The organization also works with
Heartbeat International to provide “Earn
While You Learn” training on pregnancy and
caring for a newborn in exchange for clothing,
diapers and other nursery items. Come join us!
Call 850-346-3577 for more information.

Pensemos:
Dice el Papa Francisco a
los jóvenes la peregrinación en el Santuario
de la Virgen de Loreto, Italia: “¡Canta y
camina!”. No permanezcan quietos porque entonces uno se corrompe y no sirve. Si caen,
deben
levantarse
porque
“existe
la
misericordia de Dios” y se puede recomenzar.
La peregrinación es un símbolo de la vida que
nos hace pensar que la vida es caminar, es un
camino” y “si una persona no camina y se
queda quieta, no sirve, no hace nada. Un
alma que no camina en la vida haciendo el
bien, haciendo tantas cosas que se deben
hacer por la sociedad, por ayudar a los otros y
también quien no camina por la vida
buscando a Dios y que el Espíritu Santo te
mueve de dentro, es un alma que termina en
la mediocridad y en la miseria espiritual”. Así
que “¡Por favor, no se paren en la vida!”.
