Collection for Aid to the Church in Central and Eastern Europe

A National Collection for Aid to the Church in Central and Eastern Europe will be taken up on Ash Wednesday. The Church in Central and Eastern Europe has suffered so much under decades of harsh Soviet communist rule and the great need remains for the Church in many of these countries as they are still unable to support their own renewal and growth. Your donation will help with the training of seminarians and lay leaders, youth ministry, pastoral and catechetical centers, schools, church construction and renovation, and evangelization through Catholic media.
