Walk to End Hunger
It's not too late to participate in the free Walk to End Hunger, benefitting Mercy's Gate! It's Saturday morning, Sept. 10, at 9:00am.  Register at briarfest.com<http://www.briarfest.com/>.

We'll walk to the North Union King Soopers, pick up their food, and walk back to Briarfest, just in time to rev up the Ferris wheel and order that funnel cake!
* If we reach 250 St. Gabriel walkers, Dcn. Mike will dye his beard green...Ordinary Time, you know!
* If we break 300 walkers, Fr. Kirk will sport a flattop haircut, just like Dcn. Mike!

Join us for the fun, and Walk to End Hunger!  Bring your kids, the wagon, strollers...even your dogs!  Let's show Briargate that we care for them!
