March 15th: Urban Hunger Project, feed the hungry in Baltimore City. This organization sets up tables in the neighborhood and feeds the hungry on the street. It is such an organic and personable way of interacting with the less fortunate. Those limiting social barriers are removed and we are able to recognize the innate human dignity of each person and encounter Christ in others. Location: 601 Cumberland Street, Baltimore, MD 21217. On the corner of Pennsylvania Ave & Cumberland Street. We will set up in front of the Church. Wear comfortable clothing as we will be standing the entire time. If you are attending, please email Simone (youthandyoungadults@stjosephodenton.org)
