You can help victims of Hurricane Harvey through special collections that will take place at our parishes during the weekends of Sept. 2-3 and Sept. 9-10. Please contact your parish for details. You can also donate directly to the Diocese of Saginaw.
The funds collected in this one-time special appeal for Hurricane Harvey Relief will be used to support the efforts of Catholic Charities USA, the official domestic relief agency of the U.S. Catholic Church, as they and their member agencies respond to immediate emergency needs for necessities such as water, food, shelter, and medical care as well as to the long term needs to rebuild and recover after widespread destruction, and of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops for pastoral and reconstruction aid to the Church.
Please pray for all who are still in danger, for those left homeless or without support and resources. We pray, too, for the first responders who risk their own lives to save others and for all who are giving aid and support to those in need.
