The Role of Religion in Community Organization

firestone

A lecture and discussion led by Fr. Tom Firestone

Thursday, Jan. 22nd at 7:00 PM 
Donnelly Hall at St. Mary Student Parish

Events like those in Ferguson, MO this past year showed us that minorities or those living in poverty don’t feel like they have a voice in their community.

How can the Church empower those with no political leverage?

Fr. Tom Firestone will speak from his experience helping to rebuild the city of Flint by providing safety, housing, education, and administration. Joining him will be Dr. Thomas Henthorn, Professor of History at U of M – Flint.

Volunteer with our ESL Program

ESL

Our Hispanic Ministry is continuing the English as a Second Language (ESL) conversational program for our Hispanic/Latino community. The goal of the program is to provide a safe space for the Hispanic/Latino community at St. Mary to practice their English and receive personalized guidance from native English speakers.

ESL runs every Sunday this semester from 12:45-1:45 pm. We are seeking volunteers that would be interested in working one-on-one with adults that want to practice their English skills. While moderate proficiency in Spanish is preferred, it is NOT REQUIRED!

ESL was a huge success last semester and we look forward to continuing this successful program for the Winter 2015 semester! Please contact Caroline Soyars for more information about how to get involved.
