Coming Events  !!



NEXT:

We are in contact with a variety of people: pastors, the VA, Lewis and
Clark Community College.  The intent is to incorporate the East Metro St.
Louis Catholic Worker Houses of Hospitality for Homeless Veterans as a
non-profit corporation.

The first such House would be ours (see contact us page), under the
name:  St. Isidore Catholic Worker House.

We have room here for one married couple and up to two children, plus
the Resident/General Partner of WERCo, Thomas Kuna(-Jacob).

If we succeed, we will have to put in a sprinkler system in each of the 7
rooms, and convert the two doors to emergency fire-exit, outwardly
opening doors.

The VA would pay a per diem to house one or more homeless
Vets, which we would use to give the vets part ownership in the
WERCo, with a claim on future per-diem incomes from future
use of the house.  In other works, with a lien in their names on the
house, equal to their proportionate share of the monthly payments to
principal.

The extra income from the per diem would be used to buy one or two
vans which would meet the specs of the Jersey/Greene/Calhoun
Counties' Rural Public Transit system, which should be operational by the
end of 2011.

The extra per diem would be use to pay for the Vets' to either take
schooling in an employable craft, trade or profession at L&CCC, and/or to
pay them a wage or salary to do their craft as Employee-Member-Owners
of the WERCo, plus their living expenses, and Social Security and
Medicare, etc. taxes.

If you'd like to help the St. Isidore Cottage with voluntary work, or
donations of money or in kind, please call us at: 217-942-9730.  Tom is
home most of the time, working in the home-office of WERCo or
homemaking around the house.
