We'll need to watch her because she will steal again. But most of all we need to pray with her that she is able to get help for the addiction. In closing I have good and great news. The Good News is that harvest happens every evening. Folks come with plastic bags to take the food they need.
All extra food is sent to the soup kitchens.
The Great News is that this year we are having an abundant harvest and our garden is especially beautiful. However, dirty hands, sweaty faces, and disheveled appearance notwithstanding, IHM sisters, associates, friends, neighbors and co-workers have unearthed the joy and graced moments of working together in a community garden. For example, Elizabeth Walters, IHM, and other volunteers have begun gardens on what were once trash-filled lots in the city of Detroit. Takes Root is an urban eco-justice project in the neighborhoods north of the old Tiger Stadium. The project is sponsored by the IHM Eco-Justice Steering Committee.
