November 26, 2017 - Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe “…whatever you did for one of the least of my brothers, you did for me” - MATTHEW 25:40 Most of us are generous when it’s convenient for us. We are generous when we have the time or the money. But, generosity is the opposite of that. It means giving of one’s time, money, compassion, forgiveness or mercy when it’s not convenient; when it’s not on our schedule, but on the other person’s schedule. 26 de noviembre de 2017 - Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, Rey del Universo "...todo lo que hiciste por uno de los más pequeños de mis hermanos, lo hiciste por mí" - MATEO 25:40 La mayoría de nosotros somos generosos cuando nos conviene. Somos generosos cuando tenemos tiempo o dinero. Pero la generosidad es lo contrario. Significa dar tiempo, dinero, compasión, perdón o misericordia cuando no es conveniente; cuando no es nuestro beneficio directo, sino el beneficio de la otra persona.

For 3 weekends in December (8-10, 15-17, 22-24) volunteers will be ringing bells for 2-hour shifts in front of Atkinsons Market in Hailey and Bellevue, and Albertsons in Hailey to raise funds to help fight the stigma of mental illness.
