St. Jamesians Lenten Fast

Friday, March 14-Thursday, March 20

For one week this Lent, join parishioners in their 20s and 30s as we walk in the shoes of more than one million New Yorkers who depend on food stamps. The average food budget for a NY food stamp recipient is less than $4.00 per person, per day. For one week, we will stick to this budget. The project includes a group shopping trip, mid-week group dinner, and this interactive blog of our expereinces, which will be linked to the parish website, http://www.stjames.org/, beginning in Lent. If you are interessted in hunger issues (and group bonding) give it a try! Contact Kate Salisbury, ksalisbury@stjames.org.
