The youth, young adults and parishioners of St. Theresa Church in Mountain View and its mission Holy Rosary Church in Keaau, on the Big Island, were on the move on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 23, feeding their less fortunate brothers and sisters, captured in this collage created by the parish. Three hundred plates were prepared at St. Joseph School cafeteria in Hilo and distributed at Holy Rosary Church. Love was in the air from everyone donating their time, talent and treasure. Donations were overflowing. Thank you to pastor of Blessed Sacrament Church Father Samuel Loterte for always encouraging and emphasizing our mission. Thank you also to Ms. Maile Kipapa, principal; Matthew Eftink, head of school; Mr. Costales; Chrislyn Villena for advocating the use of the cafeteria, to HCEOC and DOH for the special permit to use the facility. Thank you also to Matthew Miguel and Linden Villena for assisting in the preparation. A special thank you to Danie Villena, who coordinated the event. (Courtesy of Linda Vallena)
