With Washington in recess, our nation joins in prayer and
solidarity with those impacted by Hurricane Harvey. While the threat
continues, please pray for those still in danger and those doing the
heroic work of helping those in need.
Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA), the official domestic
relief agency of the Catholic Church, is working in conjunction with the
local Catholic Charities agencies to assist families and individuals
impacted by the hurricane.
Here is how you can help:
Pray: God of hope and mercy, we lift up to you all victims of
Hurricane Harvey, and those responding with assistance and aid. Protect
all who are in any form of danger; provide practical help to all those in
need; strengthen the weary; console the grieving and heal the
suffering; and bless those engaged in disaster relief efforts with safety
and courage. Help all people of goodwill to respond with compassion and
generous hearts. Amen.
Give: Help relief efforts in wake of Hurricane Harvey by
texting CCUSADISASTER to 71777 or click below. You can also give by
calling 1-800-919-9338 or by mail: PO Box 17066 Baltimore, MD 21297-1066
and put "Hurricane Harvey" in the memo line of the check. Funds
raised will go towards Catholic Charities agencies' efforts to assist families
and individuals with shelter, food, and other immediate and long-term
recovery needs.
We thank you for your time and generosity.
Faith and the Common Good
