:)Just for your information. Today I was at Mass at St. Joseph Church in Dyer, Indiana and got the bulletin. Was I surprised when I read in the bulletin that we have a "St. Jude House" here in Crown Point, IN! It is about 20 minutes from where I live.
It's not affiliated with St. Jude's in New York. St. Jude House out here has served victims of domestic violence and sexual assault since 1995.
On the average, more than 400 women and children go to them each year seeking safety and peace. Clients are allowed to stay, free of charge, for up to 45 days within the shelter.
It is supported by concerned community members. They were asking for toiletries and clothing which help defray costs and allows them to continue providing quality services to their clients.
With all the talking about St. Jude's the other day, this article caught my eye.
