This year sees a convergence of holy days and seasons among the Abrahamic faiths during the month of April: Passover for Jews, Lent and Easter for Christians, and Ramadan for Muslims. As faith communities, these overlapping holy days afford us an opportunity to foster mutual understanding and celebrate our shared humanity while helping those who may not have enough in our society.

From April 15 - 30, parishes and parishioners have the opportunity to make a contribution to their local food bank at www.give30.org/donate. Let's be generous, kind, and compassionate to the friend and the stranger alike and respond to selfishness with generosity, division with social solidarity, and meanness with compassion and kindness.

Parishes able to confirm participation in the food drive by April 15 will be added as a supporter on the Give 30 Campaign website.
