GREENSBORO — Top business and political leaders visited Room At The Inn’s maternity shelter in Greensboro Sept. 4 to discuss how to support women and children in need. Bob Unanue, CEO of Goya Foods; Brooke Rollins, president and CEO of the America First Policy Institute; Jorge Martinez, Hispanic outreach strategist for America First Policy Institute; and North Carolina
Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson participated in a discussion with some of the organization’s current and previous clients.

GREENSBORO — Charismatic Catholics gathered June 14-16 at Our Lady of Grace Church for a “Life in the Spirit” seminar sponsored by BLD Charlotte, with Father Marcel Amadi as retreat master and assisted by Deacon Serge Bernatchez. It was a glorious weekend, a unity of nations in Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit, organizers said.
BLD stands for “Bukas Loob Sa Diyos” (“Open In Spirit to God”). The BLD Community is a Catholic Covenant charismatic community and a private association of the faithful in the Church. The
BLD Community started in 1985 in Manila, Philippines, the center of its international organization.
