Each Lent, parishes across the Archdiocese participate in Catholic Relief Services’ Rice Bowl program. This year, through the generosity of parishioners like you, the Archdiocese collected over $550,000! This is the highest donation total ever for our Archdiocese and one of the largest in the country! 75% goes to CRS’ life-saving programs overseas while 25% (over $137,500) will be distributed to hunger-alleviation programs in our area. Over 280 grants were given out locally in 2018, including two for our parish garden and meal program.
