Real World Compassion - Youth Group to Picket Professional Building
The St. Peter Youth Group consists of students in the seventh through twelfth grades. The group is conducting a week long project called Youth in Service. The project is designed to expose the young people to a variety of volunteer activities which benefit the community, especially the needy. A number of young people from other local churches are expected to team up with the St. Peter Youth Group for the week's activities. People for Life president Tim Broderick praised the demonstration plans, commenting on Sunday, "How wonderful that these young people are learning to practice compassion in all aspects of their lives, not only in their private relationships but also in their public lives. They will be learning valuable lessons in responsible citizenship and genuine respect for all human beings, including those whom society has abandoned. How wonderful, as well, that they will be learning to reach out publicly, in peace and humility, to their entire community, appealing, as Abraham Lincoln might say, to the "better angels" of our common human nature!"
