Second it can bring refreshment to others as we share what we have with our brother at home and abroad. It need not be a lot. Jesus took the little boy's package of bread and< fish, plain food, and blessed it and it was enough for thousands who waited. There are those today who are still in need. They are looking to us., Join with us this Sunday and be refreshed and brhif6 a refreshment for another }n the form of your gift that christ may bless it and use it in the "Father's Work".
