St. Augustine Respite Shelter Volunteers
Twenty-six volunteers signed up to staff the respite shelter during St. Augustine’s week, July 411, 2016. A cooking team prepared an evening
meal for the guests at the shelter and overnight
volunteers slept over. Old First Reformed Church on 7th Avenue and Carroll Street hosts the shelter during the summer
months and faith-based communities in Park Slope provide a
staff of volunteers for a week. We thank the St. Augustine volunteers for their support in providing the guests with a hearty
meal and a clean, safe place to sleep. Our volunteers were: Kanayo Al-Broderick, Vanessa Alvarado, Robert Biegen, Carol K.
Carey, Marie Corkhill, Alycia and Tim Donovan, Ellen Edelman, Lenny Fennell, Edgar Flores, Betty Flynn, Barbara
Glayat, Deborah Hurd, Deborah Hutchinson, Rose Kyewalyanga, Tiffany Laboy, Jimmy Palmaro, Jean Prahl, Max Robin,

program and selects the guests. CAMBA services do not end in

SIGUE REZANDO
Santa Mónica, cuya fiesta celebramos en agosto, se
conoce generalmente como “la madre persistente”. Ella vio
como su hijo mayor, Agustín, le daba la espalda a su fe cristiana. Mónica estaba exasperada. Durante años se dio por
vencida de hablar directamente a su hijo siguiendo el consejo de un obispo de la región que le dijo que era mejor hablar
con Dios sobre Agustín que con Agustín sobre Dios. La
madre nunca dejó de rezar por su hijo. Finalmente, Agustín
abandonó su rebeldía, fue bautizado y luego ordenado y
nombrado obispo de Hipona. San Agustín se convirtió en
uno de los eruditos más importantes de la Iglesia. Las lecturas de hoy destacan la importancia de la oración persistente.
Abraham, a pesar de temer molestar al Señor, continúa preguntándole sobre el destino de Sodoma y Gomorra. Jesús,
en el Evangelio según san Lucas, le dice a sus discípulos
“pidan y se les dará, busquen y encontrarán, toquen y se les
abrirá” (Lucas 11:9). Esta es nuestra tarea: seguir rezando.
