Watch: Youth theatre group reaches out to veterans

 

By Catholic Review Staff

Our Lady of Grace Parish in Parkton’s Youth Theatre ministry performed an outreach activity at the Baltimore VA Medical Center July 11.

In the video below, you’ll see the group, known as the Youth Theatre of Northern Baltimore County, performing a few selections from their recent musical production of “Seussical.” Director Mary Miller said the group recently heard of the VA hospital’s need for fresh fruit, snacks and entertainment and gathered all of those items for the veterans.

Miller said the group wanted to “entertain our veterans, who have given us so much and asked for so little in return,” to “just brighten their lives a little.”
