Archdiocesan Collections
Do you know a retired priest you'd like to honour or celebrate? Your donation to the Caring for our Community Collection allows you to mark an important date in the life of a priest, like the anniversary of ordination or the day they baptized someone you love. This fund supports 20 retired and/or infirmed priests. You can schedule or change your donation at any time.
The last two shelters went up in Bedford this week. The construction and installation phase of our Crisis Emergency Shelter project took just over six weeks and we are grateful to the team at Well Engineered Inc. for putting in a lot of extra hours to make the phase of the project happen so quickly. Also, thanks to many generous donors we have fully funded the construction and installation costs for this project!
As we start a new year, a great big thank you goes out to all who have contributed to the Emergency Shelters Project. As a result of your great generosity we have just surpassed our fundraising goal. In total $336,945.50 has been raised. This means 20 shelters are fully paid for! The funds will allow us to provide for additional costs associated with the builds, support our twenty guests, and continue to find ways to counter the homelessness crisis.
