We have just experienced the devastating impact of Hurricane Ian, and know our brothers and sisters across local and international borders suffer from catastrophic flooding, wildfires, typhoons, etc. Even with emergency response to provide rescue and shelter, and restore electricity and water supplies, we realize their impacts will be long-lasting throughout the nation and the world.
We offer our prayers to all the families affected by these disasters and pray for the repose of the souls whose lives were taken.
In solidarity with our brothers and sisters, we ask you to consider contributing in support of the humanitarian, long-term recovery, and Church needs arising from these calamities.
The funds collected in this special appeal will be used to support the efforts of the official relief agencies of the U.S. Catholic Church, Catholic Charities USA and/or Catholic Relief Services, as they and their local agencies respond to immediate emergency needs for such necessities as water, food, shelter, and medical care, and aid in long-term rebuilding and recovery efforts; and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops for pastoral and reconstruction needs of the Church.
