The second collection at all Masses February 8-9, 2020, will be taken up for Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans. Your parish’s support in this second collection provides crucial funds that enable Catholic Charities to bring hope and support to those in need in our archdiocese. Donations through this second collection enable Catholic Charities to help over 77,099 individuals and families each year. Donations provide life-giving services such as food deliveries for the elderly, care for the physically and developmentally disabled, support and care for new and expecting mothers, and so much more! Please encourage your parishioners to join in this mission of service to the poor and vulnerable by supporting Catholic Charities with an open and generous heart. 95 cents of every dollar received goes directly to community services.
