The Catholic Relief Services is the oficial international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United Satates. We are motivated by the example of Jesus Christ to assist poor and suffering people in 91 countries on the basis of need, without regard to race, religion or nationality. On Palm Sunday, April 9, the second collection will be used to help the agency. During Lent, we also ask that you participate in the Catholic Relief Services Rice Bowl, a faith in action program that invites you to encounter anew ourselves, our neighbors and our God. Use your Rice Bowl and Lenten Calendar daily to guide your Lenten prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Take the Rice Bowl with you and bring your donations back on Palm Sunday.
PLATO DE ARROZ. Lleve consigo la cajita de un plato de arroz y prepare como familia durante este tiempo de Cuaresma la oportunidad de compartir, orar y ayudar a los necesitados. Al final de la Cuaresma, entregue sus donativos que servirán para ayudar a los más necesitados.
