COLLECTION
This weekend is the annual appeal at all the Masses for the support of the Churches in Eastern
Europe.
“Love is the only light” is the theme for this year's appeal. Once again this year, we have been blessed with a reminder of our bond with Eastern Europe through the presence of Martin Trojan, “our” Slovak seminarian. This annual appeal helps the churches of Eastern Europe strengthen their ministry and pastoral care of our brothers and sisters. Thank you for supporting this appeal.
