Finding purpose despite the odds

Jeanne Harn, a young single mother who once resided at Elizabeth House, a non-denominational family-oriented home, which welcomes at-risk pregnant and parenting women, visited Elizabeth House after 10 years. She shares that because of all what she learned at Elizabeth House, she felt empowered to work towards building a similar life-skills program for single mothers in the Philipines. Most of the cases there are because of incest and teen pregnancies, and there is no such help. However, Jeanne and her daughter Gabby, 10, were happy to share that Elizabeth House Philippines is being built.

Watch the video below featuring Jeanne and her daughter Gabby.

#GivingTuesday

​Our #GivingTuesday goal is to get 150 Catholics to show that they are part of the difference in the world. The sign of someone who is blessed is that they bless others. From now until December 3, we invite you to share how you have blessed others. We invite you to show your support for your parish, loved ones or one of our diocesan programs. With your gift, no matter how big or small, you show the transformative power that is within all of us for charity, kindness and mercy, which makes all the difference in the world!
