March Meeting Coming Up: March 13

Please join ALO next Thursday, March 13 from 6:45-9 pm for our next meeting!  Catherine will be our facilitator.  Just think, St. Patrick would want you to spend time in fellowship with other Catholics as we approach the end of winter.  :)

Theme:  Dr. Joseph Nasca, a pediatrician from Georgia, Vermont, will speak to us on the topic "Experience Faith: Raising Kids Catholic in the Contemporary Culture."

Food:  Expect some more tasty desserts from Jennifer Parent and other moms in the group.

Donation:  Our charity of the month is Heavenly Pantry, the interdenominational food bank in Essex Junction.  Donation is optional.  If you wish to bring a donation of cash, check (to "Heavenly Food Pantry, FCCEJ"), or goods on their wish list, we will deliver that to the organization.  They are particularly in need of: canned fruit, sugar, flour, cake mixes, brownie mix, baked beans, shampoo, conditioner, and deodorant, as well as all the normal staples you might donate to a food pantry.

Other details: As usual, child care will be provided and we will still be meeting in the St. Edmunds Room in the back of the rectory at St. Lawrence Church, Essex Junction.  (Procedures for using the new parish hall are still being ironed out.)  Directions for new participants can be found below in a blog post from September 8.  We look forward to seeing you!
