ENDING HUNGER: The Ursuline Sisters of Youngstown are collaborating with the Sisters of the Humility of Mary, Villa Maria, Pa., to combat hunger. Catholic Sisters Week is Monday through Friday. The annual event emphasizes all the good that avowed religious women contribute to society.
The two local communities, who separately offer many ministries in the Mahoning Valley, are asking lay partners also to answer the call to combat hunger.
Various parishes have been collecting canned goods for food banks including the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry and Second Harvest Food Bank.
The Diocese’s five Early Childhood Learning Centers have asked parents to collect food for either their local church pantries or St. Vincent de Paul.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has deemed food pantry staff and volunteers ineligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine (as front-facing grocery store workers are) because these dedicated women and men and the work they do is not considered “essential.” St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry has provided essential services to residents of Pine Hills and Eagle Hill neighborhoods in the city of Albany for 38 years.

Buckeye Chuck is set to poke his head out of his burrow in Marion, Ohio on Groundhog Day, February 2, 2021 in his, first ever, VIRTUAL EVENT!
By proclamation of the State of Ohio in 1979, Buckeye Chuck is Ohio’s official weather prognosticating groundhog. This is his 41st year!
Chuck has been studying weather patterns, jet stream anomalies, computer models, and napping in order to procure Ohio’s most accurate springtime forecast. Buckeye Chuck is preparing to emerge from his personal den, in the woods behind the studios of WMRN Radio in Marion, to deliver Ohio s annual forecast. Not since the creation of the Doppler Radar has any weather-related event been talked about with such anticipation. Legend says if Buckeye Chuck sees his shadow at sunrise, Ohioans will have to deal with 6 more weeks of winter, so we’ll be hoping for a cloudy morning on Tuesday, February 2nd.
