Once again, S. Diane Capuano took Molloy students to the Big Laurel Learning Center in Kermit, West Virginia to help run a camp for boys. Kermit continues to be one of the poorest rural areas in the nation. Despite the reality of this, the boys had a great week with the students. Between swimming, playing games, going to a country dance, sharing great meals and sitting around a campfire, there was much laughter and certainly memories that will last forever in our hearts! Special thanks to the Associates of our order for the many Gift Cards they collected on behalf of the boys! These cards will be used to buy new school clothes and school supplies for the boys! S. Kathy and S. Gretchen who operate the ministries there, were overwhelmed by the kindness of all of you!
