Catholic Volunteer Corps

catolic_volunteer_corps14The Daughters of St. Paul have a bookstore in Dedham but their main distribution center is in the convent in Jamaica Plain. It’s a huge facility. Earlier in the week, Shaun McKenna and Andy Lawlor, PGK and Zach McKenna went there and moved all of the metal shelving from the first floor to the basement via forklift. On July 12, Shaun, Al Papineau, Bill Killion, PGK, Grand Knight Jerry Alberico, and two members of St. Mary’s who assist with the CVC met at the convent. We disassembled all of the metal shelving (each one 7 feet tall) and there was lots of it. It was dirty, noisy, hard work but we got it all done by early afternoon. This was a wonderful act of charity and the sisters were very appreciative.
