For You Mum On Mother's Day I want to tell you, Mum That you're special to the Lord, And you are valued in His eyes, For no one loves you more... And Mum, I want you to know How blessed you really are, For I know that it was never easy, Those past years were quite hard But even through the years gone by, I believe that God was there, Reaching out with loving arms, Though we were unaware And He is still beside you Longing to be a part Of all the things that interest you, For you're special in His heart For even in the daily struggles That seems to be part of life, The Lord longs to be involved And fill the void inside So Mum, on this Mother's day, I just want you to know That you were always appreciated And that Jesus loves you so.

y. KIDZZ for KIDZZ GOATS PROJECT: Dear St. Brendan’s Parishioners, my... name is Tedario. I am a parishioner at St. Brendan’s Parish and a secondary 4 student at Vincent Massey Collegiate. For over seven years now, I have been blessed with the opportunity to participate in many life-changing and inspiring events. These events have inspired me to volunteer and give back to my community by performing local and global actions of kindness, service and charity. My actions in part aid the WE group, a non-profit organization that provides mobile medical clinics and builds schools, for developing communities in parts of Ecuador, China, Africa and Kenya, so children can grow up healthy and educated. They also build water wells next to schools so young girls can attend school without missing classes in order to collect water for their family. Five years ago, I took on the challenge of raising awareness and funds for the needy in Rural China and Ecuador, and started my community service project, Kidzz for Kidzz, with a goal of sending goats to families in need. For every $50 raised, a goat will be donated to a needy family, providing them up to 16 cups of nutritious fresh milk per day. This is a lifetime opportunity for the families as a goat will also provide a small business opportunity for families. Mothers will receive entrepreneurial training and financial education needed to make their gift of a goat flourish into sustainable income so they can send their children to school. Once again, this year, I ask you, the St. Brendan’s community, for your support. For the last four years, this community has been incredibly kind and encouraging of my stewardship, thus allowing for 130 goats to be sent to those in need. My goal this year is to raise funds for 40 goats and aid in the building of one water well. I have organized a pizza day and have been setting aside part of my allowance to be put towards this cause. Together, we can make a positive change in a family’s life. Thank you all for your support over the years, and I extend my gratitude in advance for your continued efforts. Fr. Paul has allowed the May Special Collection to be used for this endeavor. We connect with kindness, Tedario See more
