Ecology Sabbath:  April

   This year the River of Life/Environmental Justice committee, St. Daniel's faith-based environmental Justice Committee organization will

celebrate Ecology Sabbath.  Each year in conjunction with Earth Day, we celebrate God's creation and consider our responsibility and part in being good stewards.  Please join us in the Cushing Center following Mass to view our displays and learn more about being "a Good Steward".  This year, we are focusing on "good boating practices" and "proper clean up" for our pets so that we can protect our water quality. We will also feature household hazardous products and proper disposal.
