“ In the tender compassion of our God, the dawn from on high will break upon us, to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death... to guide our feet into the way of peace, .” Benedictus Dominus Deus, Luke 1:78
VOICE (Virginians Organized for Interfaith Community Engagement) needs your support!
VOICE is asking our own Arlington County Board, and leaders in adjoining jurisdictions to pay special attention in budgets for the coming fiscal year to affordable housing/homelessness programs, funding for an additional dentist in the clinic that serves patients who can’t otherwise afford care, and funding for English as a Second Language classes.
The economic downturn is particularly hard on people with little or no income. St. Mary’s, as one of the founding congregations of VOICE, is actively engaged in advocating for our sisters and brothers in need.
For more information about VOICE, contact Marjorie Green, or Paul Douthit.
