June at the STL CW

We have a lot going on in June! Check out next month’s happenings below and plan on joining us for one of our regular get-togethers at 8617 Mora Ln!

Community Prayer
Wednesday June 4th, 6 PM
Join us for this welcoming and informal time of bringing our joys and concerns to the creator and community.

The Serviceberry - Clarification of Thought Book Club
Thursday June 12th, 6 PM
Read the book or just show up to hear the conversation. This month’s clarification of thought topic will center on Braiding Sweetgrass author Robin Wall Kimmerer’s The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World. From the cover:
The serviceberry’s relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth—its abundance of sweet, juicy berries—to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival. As Kimmerer explains, ‘Serviceberries show us another model, one based upon reciprocity, where wealth comes from the quality of your relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency.’

Potluck
Sunday June 29th, 5 PM
You can bring a friend or a dish to share, we just hope to see you there.

Upcoming Work Days
June 15th and 29th, 1:30PM
We’ll be catching up on some projects around the community house next month and invite anyone with some extra energy to help us with tasks like building basement shelving and painting our porch. Our work days will start at 1:30 on Sundays June 15th and 29th. You may have noticed the 29th is also the date of our June potluck, we’ll be hanging out working on stuff up until then.

fundraiser and more at the STL Catholic Worker Community in February

  We will NOT be having our regular 'last Sunday of the month' potluck this January .  Instead, everyone is invited on Sunday, February 2nd to a Catholic Worker fundraiser to celebrate Theo's 35th birthday and his 15th anniversary of coming to the CW movement! Just like last year, a suggested (though never required) donation of 10$ gets you in the door for some pizza, beer, and Jarritos and we'll have items for raffle and auction too! We'll be getting together at 5 PM at 8617 Mora Ln. If you think you'll probably make it, send us a soft RSVP via text (‪314-474-5506‬) or email ( StLouisCatholicWorker@gmail.com ) so we can guess-timate how many pizzas to get. But don't sweat it if you decide to come last minute, we'll order extra and if there's leftovers we'll share from our excess with those lacking in pizza!     -Mark your calendars for our regular events in February. On the second Wednesday (12th) at 6 PM we will come together in pr...
