There will be a second collection the weekend of September 4th in support of recovery efforts for the island nation.
The island nation of Haiti recently suffered an earthquake which resulted in the deaths of at least 1,300 people and leaving thousands of others without food, shelter, and access to medical care. Next weekend, our parish, along with other parishes in the diocese, will be given the opportunity to share in the relief efforts, through a special collection. The funds will go to the USCCB Emergency Disaster Fund and Catholic Relief Services and/or Catholic Charities USA and will help provide the humanitarian assistance so greatly needed following this disaster. Thank you for your generosity to this collection, which again, will be taken next weekend, and for your continued support of our parish and its mission.
