will give people in poor countries skills and opportunities to break the
cycle of poverty permanently. These include long-term investments
in education, agriculture, nutrition, health and clean water.
Please plan to give a few minutes after Mass on May 17-18 to write a
short letter in support of this worthy cause. The May 11th
Adult Formation Class at 9:45 a.m. in St. Albert Hall, room 303,
will provide more information on Bread for the World and the need for
improved development assistance.

STROKE is the nation's
third leading cause of death. There are different types of strokes
but regarding of type, surviving a stroke can have a devastating impact,
not only on the survivor, but everyone who cares for them. A
stroke can be caused either by a clot or by a blood vessel rupturing and
preventing blood flow to the brain. When this occurs part of the
brain cannot get the blood and oxygen it needs, so it starts to die.
