Calls on Community for Aid For Victims of Earthquake and Tidal Wave
in Peru
Bishop Paul G. Bootkoski, Administrator of the Archdiocese of Newark,
has authorized an emergency voluntary collection to be taken at
all Catholic parishes in the Newark Archdiocese to assist in relief
services in the aftermath of the massive earthquake and tidal wave
in Peru last month. The collection can be taken during Masses scheduled
over the weekend of July 21-22.
Bishop
Bootkoski also asked that the victims of this disaster be remembered
in the General Intercessions at Mass. Anyone interested in making
a donation may do so at any Catholic parish, or may send donations
to:
