All Holy Thursday envelope donations will be used to help offset Spiritual Enrichment costs in our parishes. Your generosity is appreciated.

All Good Friday envelope donations will be used for two purposes again this year. Any money turned in, in a Rice Bowl, or in an envelope marked “Rice Bowl” will go to the Catholic Charities Rice Bowl Program to help the hungry around the world. Good Friday envelopes not designated for Rice Bowl will go to the Christians of the Holy Land. Your financial contribution helps to support the struggling Christian community in the Holy Land and to protect Christianity’s holiest places. On Good Friday, baskets will be available at the entrances to the churches holding services, for you to drop your envelope in.

If possible, please Do Not combine the Holy Week’s Collections into one check. Make separate checks and use separate envelopes. Thank you!
