Cistercian Hosts Feed My Starving Children

March 8, 2019 | Media

On March 1-2, over 440 volunteers from the Cistercian school community – students, faculty, staff, alumni and families – gathered for two special meal-packing events in our own gym with the Christian non-profit Feed My Starving Children. Together we packed 102,384 meals for children throughout the world (474 boxes). These two events follow the service performed by Forms V, VI and VII with Feed My Starving Children at their Richardson location on Martin Luther King Jr. Day (1/21), where 191 boxes were packed. Volunteers of all ages, young and old, worked together packing, labeling, boxing and shuffling items around the gym in a fun, upbeat atmosphere filled with excitement and music. It was wonderful to see so many different members of the Cistercian community serving together!

Silence and the Word

When Moses asks God to provide a name that he might share with the enslaved Israelites in Egypt, “God replied to Moses: ‘I am who I am.’ Then He added: ‘This is what you will tell the Israelites: I am has sent me to you.’ God spoke further to Moses: ‘This is what you will say to the Israelites: The Lord, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:14-15).
