2nd collection for St.Peter's Pence Collection
It is the practice for Catholics all over the world to make yearly offerings to the Holy Father to help him carry out his manifold services to the universal Church. The Holy See is very grateful for the financial support given by our Diocese in the past, but it is appealing for an even more generous support from us in view of its enormous expenses. In our Diocese, a second collection in support of this purpose is to be taken up at all public Masses.
Will be held starting on 24th February during Lent
