The Catholic Relief Services (CRS) collection supports Catholic Church organizations that carry out international relief and solidarity efforts that serve 100 million people.
Programs include relief and resettlement for victims of persecution, war and natural disasters; development projects to improve living conditions for the poor; legal and support services for poor immigrants; peace and reconciliation work for people suffering from violence; advocacy for the powerless.
There will be a second collection on Sunday April 12, 2015 at all Masses.
