So Others Might Eat (SOME)

Bro. John Gleason, CSC, a Holy Cross Brother and former Novice Director is no novice himself when it comes to serving others.  He does this every day as the Director of Elder Services for SOME, an interfaith social service agency in Washington, DC.  “The needs of the poor and homeless in our community are at an all time high,” said Brother John Gleason. “The fact is, this is a serious situation for people on fixed incomes. These are our community’s elders, yet they are forced to make impossible choices—between paying their rent or utilities, or purchasing groceries.”  Listen as he shares about his work. . .



The Congregation of Holy Cross believes strongly in social justice.   Are you involved in similar work?  Do you have a desire to join us in our ministries to the poor and oppressed?  If so, write to me at holycrossvocations@earthlink.net.
