My charity days are over except for donating to the NRA. We’re going to need the help for the next four years.

I’m finding myself feeling the same way.
We have a sister parish in Africa. They have no church building, say mass under a tree. They have a school/seminary with no water.
This year we have five advent projects at our parish. The “Giving Tree” (clothes and stuff that go to the needy), the “Shoebox Advent Project” to fill shoeboxes with school supplies and such for needy kids in Detroit, A soup kitchen in a northern city, sponsoring a seminarian in Slovakia and the African church.
We normally will grab a tag for the needy. Not this year. Anything in the states will be getting goodies from Obama. This year we are giving to the African Parish.
