Thursday, May 29, 6:30 pm:
ICPJ Dinner and Movie “The Story of Stuff”

Memorial Christian Church
730 Tappan Street

A fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of production, consumption, and waste. It'll teach you something. It'll make you laugh. And it just may change the way you look at all your stuff.

(Fr Dan’s note: “Great movie (20 minutes); very thought provoking.)

Thursday, June 19, 7:00 pm: Town Hall meeting with ICE
(Immigration and Customs Enforcement)

First Congregational United Church of Christ in Ypsilanti, at 218 N. Adams.

The intention of this large community forum is for all concerned Washtenaw County residents and others to ask questions of, and express our concerns to ICE officials about the raids, home intrusions, detainments, deportations and violations of human rights of our immigrant community members in Washtenaw County. We want everyone to come out for this event to demonstrate the large number of people who are concerned and committed to the protection of our immigrant community.

A number of St. Mary’s parishioners have formed a group to pursue this social justice issue. If you wish to be included and/or to learn more, contact Fr. Dan at dreim@umich.edu.

Fr. Dan is putting together a booklet for the Fall of area volunteer opportunities. At present, about fifteen agencies have been identified. If you have suggestions/recommendations please forward them to Fr. Dan at dreim@umich.edu.

True Generosity

Teach me to serve you, Lord, as you deserve

To give without counting the cost

To fight heedless of wounds

To labor without seeking rest

To sacrifice myself without thought of any reward

Except that of knowing that I am doing your will

~St. Ignatius of Loyola
