Lay group brings food to those in Blue Island who need it
For 16 years, the lay group Pro Labore Dei/Feed My Lambs has been faithfully feeding the homeless and the needy in Robbins. When the pandemic hit and many people lost their jobs, the members felt called to expand their work to Blue Island.
A father and son volunteering with Pro Labore Dei/Feed My Lambs kneel in prayer before the start of a food giveaway at St. Donatus Parish in Blue Island on June 13, 2020. The group serves over 400 people at its pop-up food pantry each week and plans to continue the food giveaways until the pandemic is over. (Karen Callaway/Chicago Catholic)
