At Saint Luke's Church, the parishioners were invited to participate in the Easter Project--fill an Easter Basket, attach a name tag of a girl or boy and age. One requirement was to have an age-appropriate book in the basket. The baskets will be given to 150 children formerly at Sandra's Lodge and now living in Dorchester, Roxbury, and Waltham. These homeless children live with their mothers in shelters, motels, and subsidized apartments. I decided to participate in this project and make a basket to give in memory of my dear friend, Ruth, whose birthday is tomorrow. She and I loved doing the Giving Tree at Christmas and the Baby Shower around Mother's Day at our church, so I'm sure, had she known about this project, she would have participated with her love.
