Catholic Relief Services Food Fast - Who is doing it in Region II?

A request has gone out to see who in Region II is doing Food Fast and whether there would be interest in collaborating. This is a great way to get youth involved in parish youth ministry who might not be involved in other ways and/or to prepare/develop a group for summer mission experiences. You probably have already received your postcard and ordered materials but if not you can get materials and more information online here.
