Second Collection NEXT weekend – Diocese of Norwich Outreach to Haiti
At the Masses on February 10-11, parishioners will hear about the Diocese of Norwich Outreach to Haiti’s mission serving the poor of Haiti. The second collection is dedicated to Outreach to Haiti. Funds support the families in the poverty-stricken area of Christ Roi (Christ the King) and throughout 14 twinned sister parishes in the Archdiocese of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Your gifts can help provide medical care, nutrition supplements and food, education scholarships, initiating small businesses and community development. We are working to complete the outfitting of our new building that houses our clinic in Christ Roi. For 40 years, Outreach has been serving some of God’s poorest, faith-filled, and inspiring Catholics. In the values of the Gospel, our mission provides sacramental and spiritual support through programs and relationships with twins in both the US and Haiti. Fr. Frank Rouleau lives in Port-au-Prince, serves as Chaplain & Director of Parish Twining for Outreach, and as translator/guide for all visitors. He comes to share Christ’s mission and invite you to be a part of our diocesan ministry. Our Haitian brothers and sisters are struggling with severe food shortages, political unrest, and the uncertainties we are all facing, but more challenging in Haiti where help and health care is meager. Please pray for them. We thank you for your generosity. For more information about this ministry please visit Outreach to Haiti website at www.outreachtohaiti.org
