Peter's Pence Collecton
The weekend of January 22nd and 23rd is the annual Peter's Pence Collectionh. This is a worldwide collection that provides badly needed assistance as directed by the Holy Father, Pope Francis. He uses these funds to respond quickly to pressing emergencies or diasasters throughout the world, especially in countries with limited resources. We may not be aware of the specific recipients, but our contributions are vital. By participating in Peter's Pence, we can be the hands and feet of Christ to help those who need it the most. Please join Fr. Gross in prayerfully considering a generous offering to the Peter's Pence Collection.
