On the weekend of March 3-4, our parish will join with the other 287 parishes in the Archdiocese of Boston to participate in the 2012 Catholic Appeal. This annual effort Directly supports the 50 ministries that benefit hundreds of pastoral, charitable and educational programs. This worthwhile effort is the most effective way for our parish to join in the Church’s universal work of caring for those among us who are in need. At every Mass during Appeal weekend, we will be asked to pledge our support for this year’s Appeal. Please prayerfully consider how God is calling you to be the Good Samaritan through your support of the Catholic Appeal. For more information about the Catholic Appeal or to make a pledge to our parish campaign, please visit: www.BostonCatholicAppeal.org.
