Lest we forget, this is what Jesus instructed his followers to do — to comfort and minister to our fellows, especially those who might need a hand-up, and to give selflessly, ceaselessly and without discern- ment — and what better way to honor that spiritual directive than with a feast donated by Bruns’ Apple Market and folks in the Eugene Police Department. Perhaps most inspiring, the dinner will be served by Eugene police officers, providing us with an unlikely image of community and cooperation in a world that, at times, appears to be tearing itself apart at the seams. SVdP says every homeless adult who shows up for the dinner (event is for individuals and not families) will be served, and on most years they’ve had enough food for folks to have seconds, even. St. Vincent de Paul’s Christmas dinner takes place noon to 2:30 pm Friday, Dec. 29, at the Eugene Ser- vice Station at 450 Highway 99 North; for further information, or to donate to the Service Station, visit svdp.us or call 541-687-5820. — Rick Levin NEW NAME • FRESH LOOK VIDEO GAMES MUSIC MOVIES BUY • SELL • TRADE H, EUGE E. 11T N 30 41) 302-304 E 5 (5 *15% OFF NEW GEM CBD & CV SCIENCES; 20% OFF MB SCALAR CBD 1653 Willamette Street M-F 9-6 • Sat 10-5 • Sun 11-5 FREE OFF-STREET PARKING 541-485-5100 www.evergreennutrition.com the email by Thursday, December 28 at noon.
