The Holy Family Parish Cevicos Mission

Our Mission works with small businesses in Cevicos in the Dominican Republic, providing loans to cooperative groups of owners. Alberta owns a cafeteria. Our loans allowed her to buy a freezer and make kitchen improvements.

Our loans are usually for $500 or less. They are enough to provide needed support to these small businesses. Alberta provides food for a school cafeteria. She offers a wide variety of fresh foods.

On the Rails

From Caitlin Kreitman;

I am running for the second time in order support this amazing cause. As a member of the AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary #32 of Gloucester, I love this country and all those that work to protect our great nation. I also definitely understand the sacrifice they make and how much we need to support them when they make their transition home. God Bless our troops and Veterans. Below is more information about the great work this cause enables.

“There’s Always Next Year!”

When I was younger and rocking my new born son Salvatore, while watching the Up’s and Down’s of the 1986 World Series and seeing the Sox Lose was at that time devastating. People at work were walking around like zombies because of all the late night games. But, When you get a little older. You realize that it’s only a game. These athletes will get over it. Give them a week. They have been treated like Royalty since they were in the High School sports programs. When we lived in New Hampshire (I’m not saying which Town, just in case we move back next year) The sports athletes had special privileges. Parking spaces, tutoring, etc, etc.  The Patriots will get over it. Brady will head back to NYC with his Model Wife. Belichick will head back to the Cape to go fishing. The rest of the team will have their golf Vacations. Life goes on. Take a day to get over it and move on. There are more important things in Life.

Go Bruins!
