Spreading Catholicism on Pinterest!

Today I signed up for Pinterest, a great social networking site for sharing cool stuff on the Internet.

I'm doing my part to share the best Catholic sites and books and Saints that I know!  I'm not sure what I'm doing, but Pinterest is fun!

Use biodegradable soap and shampoos. 

Visit Catholic Relief Services Fair Trade website where you can buy, support and even fundraise with products like the Equal Exchange coffee, tea, and chocolate; fair trade farmers care for Creation and are given a living wage to support their families and communities: www.crsfairtrade.org

The Stations of the Cross Around the World with Catholic Relief Services (CRS).

Station 8 Jesus Comforts the Women.  In India, more than 40% of children under the age of five are underweight. Children who suffer from malnutrition at a young age are at greater risk to suffer illness or death.  CRS, in cooperation with the government of India, trains health workers to educate mothers about good nutrition and immunizations for themselves and their children.   

Catholic Social Teaching: Option for the Poor.  As a community of faith, we have the obligation to reach out to those most in need.  The Gospel specifically calls us to take action on behalf of the most vulnerable members of society.
