Like the members of the early church, who brought forth their gifts to share with those who were in need, we, the faithful of the Diocese of Kalamazoo, are called to share our gifts with our brothers and sisters in Africa, Eastern and Central Europe, and Latin America through this combined collection for three national appeals: The Solidarity Fund for the Church in Africa, the Church in Eastern and Central Europe, and the Church in Latin America. Even the smallest gift truly makes a difference, and is a gesture of support, encouragement and solidarity for which the Catholics living in these regions are very grateful. For more information about each area, go to www.usccb.org/nationalcollections and use the menu on the left to search for the specific collection.
