Second Collection for flood victims

PLEASE HELP VICTIMS OF FLOODING: As you know from news
accounts, many parts of the Southern Tier have been devastated
by flooding in recent days. Bishop Clark has asked all parishes
to conduct a Second Collection at all weekend Masses Sept.
24/25, 2011, to provide emergency and longer-term assistance to
those affected in Chemung, Tompkins and Tioga counties. Please give
generously!

If you donate by check, please make it out to your
parish with “Flood Relief” in the memo field. All funds collected
will be sent to Diocese of Rochester Catholic Charities and used
for emergency assistance.

If you wish to send a contribution directly (checks only, with “flood relief” in the memo field), please send it to:

Catholic Charities Flood Relief
