St. John – St. Paul Catholic Collaborative

As you know, people across multiple southern states are experiencing the impacts of two deadly hurricanes within two weeks of each other: Helene and Milton. These storms created paths of destruction exceeding hundreds of miles. The death toll for both storms is at 280 people and there are still approximately 100 people reported missing. 

In response, earlier this month Cardinal Seán asked the parishes of the Archdiocese to once again step forward with a special collection to help our brothers and sisters in need. 

Catholic Charities USA is providing immediate disaster relief with necessities such as water, hygiene kits, diapers, and blankets among many other items…

As part of the annual Missionary Co-Operative Program, Maureen Crowley Heil, representing The Missionary Childhood Association, will speak at all Masses this weekend. The Missionary Childhood Association is one of the four Pontifical Mission Societies in the Archdiocese of Boston. Maureen will share stories of the missions and help us build a spiritual connection to others whose daily lives may be very different from ours. The Missionary Childhood Association is the official mission agency of the Catholic Church dedicated to assisting and supporting laypeople, priests, and religious in their evangelizing missionary work with children under the age of fourteen. 

Envelopes are in the pews for this weekend’s second collection…
