Please keep the Pope’s missions in your prayers, and be generous in next week’s collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith. Envelopes are in the bulletin.As part of our Catholic “FAITHFUL CITIZENSHIP” effort, we ask you to pray for those who are in public service or running for office, that they may use their position to protect the defenseless, promote the life and dignity of the poor and vulnerable, and seek ways to advance fairness, justice, and dignity in our society.
