For the first of several Community Fund Chapels, we welcomed Ms. Angela White of Agape Ministries. Angela thanked the St. Mary's students and supporters for the grant Agape received last year, and she explained to the MS and US audience some of the work made possible by the gift. Telling us the story of one woman and her children who came to Agape, Angela revealed the multi-layered work that is done by their organization: pre-natal care, residential treatment, life-skills training, child care and child assessment.
Her commitment to this meaningful work shone through her words, and her gratitude to St. Mary's was sincere. Ms. White left us with a challenge to remember those whom it would be easy to forget and an invitation to work even more closely with Agape in the future.
