Fourth Sunday of Easter ShareLife 2012

Working Wonders With Dignity And Respect For Others. As the annual charitable appeal of the Catholic community in our diocese, ShareLife supports a large family of Catholic agencies that truly do feed, clothe and shelter people, befriend the isolated and lonely, and care for the sick and frail. They guide and counsel the troubled, protect the vulnerable, visit people in prison and give a voice to the voiceless. ShareLife agencies meet people where they are, whatever their religious beliefs or personal background, treating them with the dignity and respect we all deserve.
Cardinal Thomas C. Collins, Archbishop of Toronto

April 29th ShareLife at O.L.S.
