Second Collection Next Weekend

Monetary donations will be accepted next weekend (September 17-18) to assist with disaster relief in Louisiana, where 13 people died and more than 10,000 residents were forced into shelters last month. More than 100,000 homes were damaged by the catastrophic flooding, considered the worst natural disaster in the United States since Hurricane Sandy, which affected many within our own diocese just four years ago.

A second collection will be taken up during Masses at St. Anthony, while at Our Lady of Sorrows, donations may be deposited in the green containers found at all entrances.

Please make checks payable to OLS-SA. The Diocese of Trenton will collect the donations from our parish and others, and then forward one check to the Diocese of Baton Rouge Disaster Assistance Fund.

Free will contributions to relief efforts can be made directly to:

Diocese of Baton Rouge
ATTN: "Disaster Assistance Fund"
P.O. Box 2028
Baton Rouge, LA  79821-2028

Thanks for considering supporting this charitable outreach to the victims of this disaster.
