Little Sisters Need a Prayer
142 year history threatened
Posted: 03/09/2011
Baltimore - You work 50 hours a week. You have 3 small kids to look after. Who is going to take care of your mom and dad. For 142 years, the Little Sisters of the Poor have been taking in our poor and elderly. Now e have to take care of them. The St. Martin's Home on Maiden Choice Avenue in Catonsville needs a major renovation or else it will close. William Cardinal Keeler who's mom spent her final years at St, Martin's, will be the man in charge of the Capital Campaign. Bill Gaudreau, famous for building many a building in Baltimore, built the original home and now his son is in charge of constructing the new home. Ask any resident and they will tell you how safe they feel, how well they are treated by the nuns. It is a Baltimore institution that needs our help to stay in Baltimore.
