2023 EASTER Collection

"With great power the Apostles bore witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great favor was accorded them all. There was no needy person among them, for those who owned a property or houses would sell them, bring the proceeds of the sale, and put them at the feet of the Apostles, and they were distributed to each according to need.

Acts 4:33-35

Included in next weekend’s offertory will be the Appeal for Catholic Home Missions. Please be generous.
