A donor writes,

“Your flyer touched my heart—seeing the retired

religious, such memories surfaced.” Do you re-

member the sisters, brothers, or religious order

priests who made a positive difference in your

life? Today many are elderly and need assis-

tance. The religious communities struggle to

meet retirement needs while continuing to serve

the People of God. Please give to next week’s

second collection.
