[Announce] Grocery Delivery Day

 Grocery Delivery Day


Hunger is a thief. It is uncaring, selfish and cruel. It is unfettered by
racial bigotry. Hunger treats people of all ethnicities the same. It does
not discriminate based on gender or age. Hunger robs its victims of the
abilities to learn, to function in society, and to create opportunities for
themselves. Hunger is an incredible injustice that exists in our world and
in our local community.

In Oklahoma, 14.6 percent of the population — around 518,000 people — are
food insecure, which means that they don't always have money to put food on
the table.

We all have an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of people in
our community to whom hunger is no stranger.

Every month a group of people from all different walks of life get together
to help deliver groceries to  people in our community.

We hope that this month you will join us as we work together to help provide
groceries and hope to some of the most vulnerable people in our community.

"And through our silence, the church has developed a spirituality of war
which says that violence saves us, might makes right, God blesses war,
nuclear weapons are our true security, and the good news is not love of
enemies but the elimination of enemies. The empire always tries to instruct
the church on sin and morality, saying such and such personal behavior is
immoral, and saying nothing about the killing of 100,000 Iraqis last year,
as if that were perfectly moral."
-John Dear, November 6, 2004

"Even when they call us mad, when they call us subversives and communists
and all the epithets they put on us, we know we only preach the subversive
witness of the Beatitudes, which have turned everything upside down." -
Oscar Romero
