The weekend of March 18 & 19 is Global Solidarity Sunday. We celebrate “For God so loved the world…” (Jn. 3:16). This is a unique opportunity to share God’s love in solidarity with our brothers and sisters overseas. We are invited to offer gifts of support, an expression of Lenten almsgiving, by contributing to this collection for four global initiatives designated by the U.S. Catholic Bishops: The Church in Africa, Latin America, Central and Eastern Europe, as well as humanitarian activities of Catholic Relief Services. Please be as generous as you are able and share the love of God with our brothers and sisters overseas. You may contribute by using the “Global Solidarity” envelope in your envelope packet or by putting a check in the weekend collection with “Global Solidarity” written on the memo line.
