Children in East Timor are in desperate need of books and other educational material. This month, St. Martha's Parish will be sponsoring a book drive for the children. You can donate a new or used book in the special bin located in the parish office. We would also appreciate cash donations to cover shipping costs. Won't you please help the children? Contact Paul Harvell in the parish office for further details.
