As it happens, there are two special appeals next weekend. Both offerings may be placed in the second collection. One is the annual Peter’s pence Collection, used by Our Holy Father to aid victims of war, persecution, and natural disasters throughout the world. The second appeal is the Summer Mission Collection.

This year the talk will be given by a Vincentian Father, who will present on behalf of their Missions in India, East Africa and Peru.

Note that your gift for both appeals may be placed in the second collection. Please use the specially marked parish envelope for the ‘Peter’s Pence’ Appeal. Loose money and checks, marked ‘Mission Appeal’, will go toward the missions.
