Call to Mission    April 2008
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fr. Dominic Duggins You are the key! That's the headline on our new brochure to promote membership in Glenmary's Boost-A-Month Club. "BAM-ers," as we affectionately refer to these faithful monthly contributors, are key to keeping the doors open in the home missions—church doors, food pantry doors, doors to ecumenical cooperation, car doors and the door at the Glenmary Farm. Please read more about this wonderful way to support Glenmary—and then join today!

Please keep them in your prayers-and consider a gift now to help pay their tuition bills!
