SPOTLIGHT The Sisters of St. Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana are celebrating 25 years of loving service at their Food Pantry in the West Terre Haute area. Sister Joseph, Director said "the pantry served more than 4,000 families and 16,000 individuals in 2018." Since its beginning in 1994 in the basement of a parish school building, it has grown and expanded. It runs on donations and support from local churches, organizations, and many volunteers.

That impacted me. I started to think, if I go to Heaven to see God and He asks me, ‘How did you live?' - How can I answer Him?” READ FULL STORY Sister Veronica Kim, an unlikely Catholic seeds-2 Sister Veronica Kim Food Pantry check Sister Veronica Kim Food Pantry check seeds-2 Sister Veronica Kim seeds Sister Veronica Kim Food Pantry check seeds-2 Food Pantry check Sister Veronica Kim seeds-2 Food Pantry check
