The reason that I belong is simple.  I live next door to the house where Mary once lived, the same Mary to whom I made my promise that I would do what I could to help people, like her, living alone with no one to help them.  When i see her house, I am reminded of my promise.  Belonging to and supporting NVCN is the best way I know to keep that promise.  ~Paul Jellinek, Mercerville, NJ
