Ash Wednesday (March 5, 2025)
marks the beginning of Lent. We
take time to pray, fast, and reflect
on Jesus’ great love for us, shown
in His death on the cross for our
salvation.
Almsgiving is a way for us to
demonstrate our love and
gratitude to Him by giving to
others who are less fortunate.
Each parish may designate an organization or charity for its Lenten outreach
and decide on how to receive contributions:
- using individual alms boxes or envelopes.
- placing a large, sealed box in the church vestibule.
- encouraging online donations.
May God bless you as you share with the needy in your community.
