During the week of April 1, the Good Shepherd Mission Council held a Recycling Program in conjunction with the Women's Group Garage Sale.  The Mission Council has worked with an organization that takes in unwanted electronics and other items and processes the materials to ensure that the items don't wind up in places that are bad for the environment.  Kathy spearheaded the publicity for this event and members of the Mission Council were at the Tinker House from 8 am to 5 pm every day to receive the recyclable items and accept donations that will go to support the Trade School in Honduras. 

The results were amazing - Several rooms of the Tinker House were completely filled up with recyclable items.  In addition, the recycling organization was able to go to people's homes and pick up big screen t-v's and other items.  And, as always, Good Shepherd parishioners were generous with their donations that will help improve the quality of life in Honduras.  Thanks to everyone for their outstanding support.  Our intention is to do this event every year in conjunction with the Women's Group Garage Sales.
