Solidarity

 

Catholic social teaching proclaims that we are our brothers' and sisters' keepers, wherever they live.  We are one human family, whatever our national, racial, ethnic, economic, and ideological differences.  Solidarity means that "loving our neighbor" has global dimensions in an interdependent world.

  
  Feed My Starving Children (www.fmsc.org or (763) 504-2919).  Teams work 2 hour shifts putting together the meals, which the program then distributes.  Groups of 10 – 40 people sign up for a specific date and time to package at FMSC in Brooklyn Park.  Volunteer sessions last between 1.5 -2 hours, depending on day of the week and time of day.  Visit the website to set up a date and time.  You will need to set up a date in advance.
