Homeless – The Youth Ministry of the Parish of St. Bruno-St. Remi in Van Buren participated in a Homeless Awareness night on Oct. 25-25, 1998. The youth slept in cardboard boxes under a makeshift tent on the parish lawn. The high point of the evening was a presentation by an area college student who had experienced homelessness as a teenager. All who heard the story of this speaker gained a new appreciation of what is often taken for granted: a home, clean clothes, showers, regular meals, living with love and respect and living without fear.
