Column about assisting those in need should be shared in parishes, schools

I read the Sept. 15th column by David Bethuram, executive director of the archdiocesan Secretariat for Catholic Charities. It was well written and informative about the Church’s basic belief about assisting those with insufficient income to meet the food needs of their families.

It would be great to print it as a pamphlet that could be passed out in our parishes. It is a concise and clearly presented statement of our Catholic response to needs that can be met by our collective action and monetary donations.

I suggest that Catholic high school students should receive and discuss this column in religious study classes. Thank you, David, for such fine writing.
