Collection for those affected by natural disasters

Bishop Robert E. Guglielmone has authorized a second collection to assist those affected by the fires in Australia, the volcano eruption in the Philippines, and the earthquake in Puerto Rico. The collection at Saint Anne and Saint Jude will take place the weekend of January 25 & 26.

As we mourn those who have lost their lives in these terrible events, we must also join in prayer and action as a Catholic community.

This Sunday’s second reading from 1 Corinthians reminds us that “all those everywhere who call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours,” must act for our brothers and sisters by sharing what we can.
