HospitalityHospitalityHospitalityHospitality Throughout the year we will use this space to offer some

suggestions, some thoughts, some challenges to help us stay

focused on our goal of hospitality.

Bishop Morneau: Embracing Hospitality. Eighth Step: A Hospitable Mind.

In this step, Bishop Morneau says we have to intentionally look for the graces that come to us every day. We miss so many, because we don't look for them (we are not awake and waiting). So often we fail to really listen to each other or enter into real dialogue with each other. Listening and dialogue are rare these days. When they are not deliber-ately cultivated and fostered, our minds become closed and we become entangled in prejudices of our own crea-tion. Our heart becomes cold and love cannot grow. When this happens there is no room to welcome others into our lives. There is no room for hospitality, no room for the stranger and no room for grace. Pay attention to your own behavior this week. See if you really listen to others (especially those with whom you live). See if you enter into dialogue with others or just speak what you think with no willingness to expand your thinking by hear-ing what others think.

valuable to the future of the Church in this region.

DUBLIN FOOD PANTRY

IRISH FESTIVAL REQUEST FOR HELP

The Dublin Food Pantry's largest volunteer and food drive event is the Dublin Irish Festival. On

Sunday, August 7, people can receive free admission to the Festival with a food donation to the Pantry. After the food is collected at the Festival, it is trucked over to the Pan-try to be unloaded, sorted and boxed. The Pantry needs vol-unteers to work this worthwhile event. If you are interested in volunteering, please email [email protected] for sign up information.
