Pope Leo has asked our parish to support the Pontifical Good Friday Collection, which helps Christians in the Holy Land, where they are now less than 2% of the population. Your support is essential to help the Church minister in parishes, provide Catholic schools, and offer religious education. The collection also helps to preserve the sacred shrines of Christianity, including in Jerusalem, Nazareth, and Bethlehem, to name only a few. First the pandemic and now the Iranian conflict have made the situation even more dire for Christians. In these times of crisis, the Pontifical Good Friday Collection is necessary to meet the basic needs of the People of God and to maintain a Christian presence where the Church was born. When you contribute to the Pontifical Good Friday Collection, you join with Catholics around the world in solidarity with the Church in the Holy Land. PLEASE BE GENEROUS!

Esta colecta también contribuye a preservar los santuarios sagrados del cristianismo, incluyendo los de Jerusalén, Nazaret y Belén, por nombrar solo algunos.

Jesus tells us, "Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I with them" (Matthew 18:20). At Taller de José, we live out this call by building strong, connected communities. With over 150 community partners, Taller de José helps neighbors navigate complex systems and access critical resources. When Rosa was diagnosed with aggressive cancer and unable to work, we helped secure rent assistance and worked with her landlord so she could remain in her home while recovering. Today, she is back at work and still housed. On Holy Thursday, please consider giving to the special collection to support this ministry of accompaniment. Your donation helps ensure neighbors in need receive support, guidance, and hope. Learn more or give online.  Haz clic en "Read More" (Leer más) para ver la traducción al español.
