GIVE GENEROUSLY TO THE CAMPAIGN IN SUPPORT OF RECONCILIATION
Traditionally and historically, Catholics are known for sharing their blessings. Special collections are important for two reasons. The first is that they help fund a specific need that the Church has identified as worthy and true to the Church’s mission. The second is that they offer opportunities for us, as Christians, to support the Church’s mission on earth. Archbishop Marcel has invited each of us to participate in Ottawa-Cornwall’s Fundraising Campaign in Support of Reconciliation: A CHRIST- CENTRED CO-JOURNEY TOWARDS HEALING. Please use the special envelope found in the pew to make
your donation. Every gift is appreciated, and every gift has value! And remember your gift will stay in the Archdiocese to be used by local Indigenous groups and organizations. To find out more, please visit https://journeyforhealing.ca/
