Lenten Almsgiving Donations
Almsgiving is our reponse to God that comes out of our prayer and fasting. It is an expression of our gratitude for all we've been given and an understanding that works of charity and the promotion of justice is all of our responsibility.
We use a three-legged approach to our almsgiving at St. Patrick:
- Parish - Catholic Charities Community Services - supports counseling services for our parishioners in need.
- Local - Habitat for Humanity - supports affordable housing in Central AZ
- Global - CRS Rice Bowls - supports Catholic Relief Services (the official humanitarian organization of the Catholic Community in the US)>
