Amen I say to you, as you did it for one of the least of these My brothers and sisters, you did it for Me.

Orthodoxy in Dialogue’s second annual Feeding the Homeless on Christmas fundraiser on GoFundMe has collected 69 donations for a total of $3928.00 in just under six weeks. This comes close to exactly double the amount we collected last year.

The premise is simple: on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day (to be determined as yet, based on liturgical schedules), my 12-year old granddaughter Eliana and I will walk the streets of downtown Toronto and give $100 to each homeless person we meet. This will allow them the basic human dignity of obtaining a restaurant meal, and/or food from the market, and/or whatever else they choose to spend it on, when and where they choose to spend it. (Our partners last year will be unable to join us this year.) 

We thank each of the following individuals with all our heart for making this project possible yet another year. May God bless you a thousandfold for your kindness. 

Giacomo Sanfilippo
