Last evening these incredible young people came together to help us make 300 Quiches and 100 Sandwiches for St John’s Food Kitchen in Newark. They chopped, sautéed and mixed all the ingredients efficiently and with great energy. It was a great experience for all of us, adults included. It was interesting to listen to them discuss amongst themselves their concerns and anxiety about moving to the high school. It felt like an opportunity that we should take advantage of getting them together with some of our high school kids to potentially answer questions for them. Letting them out into the gym afterwards to play basketball seemed to help them relax. They all seem to crave a connection to the parish and the ability to hang out with each other. Mary Frances was superb as always, sticking it out with me until after 10pm to get all the quiches baked off. We were both fried!
