Sunday Snippets is brought to you each week by RAnn at This, That and the Other Thing.

This week's theme was poverty.  We heard John Foley's Cry of the Poor, looked at The Beggar by French painter Jules Bastien-Lepage, and read Living in the Mountains by Japanese poet Jakushitsu Genko.  We also commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Peace Corps, looked at St. Katharine Drexel's response to suffering, and explored the parable of the fig tree.
