Clothesline Project

As I was visiting a parishioner at Regions Hospital a couple of days ago I noticed a bunch of t-shirts hanging up on a clothes line struck along one of the hall ways. Upon closer inspection, each t-shirt had a story to tell. These stories were not cute stories, but rather common stories of abuse, murder, and death. The size of the t-shirts ranged in size from new-born to XX large. This is the clothesline project. You can view their web site at,

It has gotten me thinking about how the church can help out in these situation, although I have not come up with any definitive answer.
