cook out/eat in was great, thanks to food and $$$ donors and Cookout Coordinator
Pat Byrne and her crew of kitchen prep and serving volunteers.

again be conducting a drive for back-to-school items for

Young Neighbors in Action Service Trip
The bulletin cover this week highlights some of the work done by some of our youth over the course of a
week this past July as part of the Young Neighbors in Action program. Seven teenagers and two adults
made the trip out to Yakima, Washington, where they spent the week living in community with sixty
other participants from around the country. Days were spent running a camp for some of the inner city
youth of Yakima, and the evenings were spent in reflection about the service experience and our call to
social justice. Through the week, our students were witness to the difference that care and concern can
make when shown to those who are suffering from poverty, abuse, or neglect. Our participants have
returned with a heightened sense of responsibility toward others and a desire for leadership in the parish.
Many thanks to all those who gave of their time, donated money, or who worked towards making the
trip possible and memorable. More photographs of our experiences in Yakima can be found in the
Gathering Space in the upper church.
