Entries for September 2017
Weekend of October 14/15
The 6 Dioceses of Puerto Rico, and Cuba have
suffered significant devastation. The Church in
Mexico experienced substantial damage, due to
the earthquake, in several of the Dioceses, some
of which are the poorest in the country.
We pray in solidarity for all those who are
suffering in these days. Your continued
remembrance at Mass is deeply appreciated.
There are envelopes in the Church (you can use
the Hurricane Harvey envelopes) please indicate
“Natural Disaster” collection on the check.
Thank you for your continued generosity.
