SECOND COLLECTION TODAY FOR
MISSION
SUNDAY (Propagation of the Faith)
We know how blessed we are in
our faith, in times of sorrow, in times of worry, in times of joy.
Christ calls us to share this gift with those who are close to us and the
entire world. Today, World Mission Sunday, we pray in a special way, that all
may know the nearness and love of Christ. Our
second collection for World Mission Sunday (Propagation of the Faith) will help
support the Church’s missionary work throughout the world and in our home
missions. Please be as generous as
you can in sharing the gift of faith you have received. Extra envelopes are
available in the pews.
