I\u2019m a huge fan of Mercy for Life<\/a>, a delightful little apostolate in Uganda run by my friends Fausta Nalubega and her husband Ross Earl Hoffman.\u00a0 It\u2019s a beautiful little Catholic community that takes care of the widow, the orphan, the stranger, the sick, the unborn, and the elderly.\u00a0 They praise God, run a school, help get people medical care and do all kinds of good things for all kinds of people. Click the link above and invest in the work of the Kingdom of God among God\u2019s little ones.<\/p>\n

In addition, we can help feed people suffering from the monumental act of genocide being committed by the Saudis and the the Most Prolife President in history against the Yemeni people:<\/p>\n

Give to the International Rescue Committee now and help feed the starving millions in Yemen<\/a>!<\/p>\n
