Introduction (February 18, Ash Wednesday):

Pope Francis and Our Journey Against Hunger

 

In December 2013, Pope Francis and Caritas International launched a world-wide campaign to end hunger by 2025: One Human Family: Food For All. This campaign joins 164 Catholic agencies in over 200 countries to build awareness and seek solutions to "this scandal of hunger in our world."

 

 

And if you'd like more:

  • Good Shepherd has a copy of the 2013 documentary film "A Place at the Table" which takes an in-depth look at hunger in the United States. If you'd like to check it out, contact Katie in the Parish Office (katie@gs-cc.org, 703-780-4055)

  • Read the Pope's Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium or "The Joy of the Gospel."  We will reference sections of this document throughout our series.
