As we approach the darkest time of the year I am very grateful that I have warmth, enough to eat and the love of my partner and friends.
Last year we decided that we would donate the money we spend on gifts, cards and postage to an Irish charity.
This year we will be giving to the Capuchin Day Centre for Homeless People in Dublin.
Their mission statement is -
'Inspired by the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi, we at the Capuchin Day Centre welcome people in need of food aid who have no home, or are socially excluded and respecting their dignity, provide a caring pastoral, holistic and non-judgmental service responsive
to their needs.'

May you have food, warmth and companionship over the festive season.
Blessings
