“”In our community Catholic Charities has been sponsoring Muslim families from Bosnia and elsewhere for over a decade now “”

This is because we reach out to everyone in need out of Love, and in turn we pray that our example of Love will open their hearts so we can minister them.

A while back on another religious forum a protestant brother told me that while he was working at a homeless shelter that he observed that the homeless people would not show up when a certain group of protestants were working at the shelter and they would show up in large numbers when the Catholic community was there.

He was told by the homeless people that they felt threatened by th the constant pounding of scripture versus being thrown at them to the point it made them feel belittled.

He went on to say that the Catholic’s simply Loved them and humbled themselves in the way they served them.

This, my friend is Christian Love.

Love is Not one’s ability to choose whom to love and to force the Bible on someone!

I wish you Peace of mind!

Well there you have it, mark, the answer to your question:

They are coming for you, people. The former Catholic stronghold of Hamtramck in Detroit has a mosque blaring out prayers six times a day, even though church bells are forbidden because they are religious. They are coming. What you all going to do about it?

Catholic Charities in Hamtrammack probably sponsored them.

stfassisi says that we should LOVE them. They LOVED them in Hamtrammack and now there is no one left up there to LOVE them any more.
