NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: p

The holidays are once again closing in on us. This has been an incredibly challenging year to say the least. My request to all is to have a Happy and Safe Holiday Season. That being said, I am concerned with the COVID 19 Pandemic that is still with us and will not leave. Be safe, take all the precautions you feel are safe, wear a mask, wash your hands and respect each other’s health. Pride is not a cure for this pandemic, taking care of ourselves and others is the secret to this cure.

Monday, Nov. 30th, 6:45PM on ZOOM For: FAST Committees' Annual Kickoff If you are interested in the work of Saint Teresa/Allendale's Social Justice Ministry, known as "FAST" (Faith and Action for Strength Together), you are invited to the annual committee kickoff meeting on Nov. 30th. Becoming a member of a committee affords you with an opportunity to play a part in one of three committees that are established for this year's work: -Affordable Housing -Behavioral Health (Mental Health+ Addictions) -Criminal Justice Researching and formulating an action plan "takes a village" within each committee and takes place between December and March. The action plan is then presented at the Annual Rally and Nehemiah Action in early Spring.

Ordinarily this meeting would take place as a large gathering, where there's opportunity to meet people of all faiths within Pinellas County who share your passion and concerns regarding a particular issue. Unfortunately, this year, due to COVID, committee meetings will take place on ZOOM, but that will not stop the wheels of social justice from moving forward.

If you are interested in participating in one of the FAST committees, or for more information about FAST, please reach out to Fran Zimmer (nannie1727@yahoo.com, or 727-458-9431) or Deacon Barb (bef0928@aol.com, 727-457-6143). Registration for the Annual Committee Kickoff will begin before Thanksgiving.

MATS FOR THE HOMELESS VIDEO ON THE LEARNING ZONE

November 24th

Please keep donating your plastic bags!

We constantly see commercials on Serta Mattress with a price range of $800 to over $2,000. Donating Plastic Bags and helping in the to Workshop for the Homeless is the least we can do. Since we cannot give all the Homeless a Serta Mattress, is it too much to give them an American Made product of a Plastic Mat.

another day added to the homeless mat ministry 3 Sunday of each month after mass from 12:30 - 2:30 pm rd

For those that are not Night Owls and would like to participate in this needed Ministry.
