I'm composing this Pastor's Corner on the morning after the destruction that was caused by Hurricane Sandy.  There is, no doubt, many ways that people respond when seeing the misery that this storm caused.  Some might say, "I'm glad it wasn't me or my family."  Others, (hopefully most of us) wonder what could be done for these poor people.  Besides prayer, which should always come first, I thought about making a monetary donation to the Red Cross and/or Catholic Relief Services.  I hope you have, or will, consider doing that as well in the next few days.  The addresses for each of these disaster relief agencies is: Red Cross, 2025 East Street NW, Washington, DC, 20006 or Catholic Relief Services, Post Office Box 170090, Baltimore, MD, 21203-7190 (put name of the emergency on the check).  This is one way to be Christ to those who are hurting.  May God bless this and all relief efforts.
