The bishops have written a letter asking everyone in our parishes to support the Caritas Lent Appeal. The appeal is the most important fundraising event by which Caritas helps the vulnerable communities it works with across the Pacific and beyond. We ask that during this Lenten time of preparation and almsgiving, you make a special gift to the Lent Appeal 2024 using the envelopes provided at Mass or online at www.caritas.org.nz

The post Bishops’ statement supporting Caritas Lent Appeal 2024 first appeared on Archdiocese of Wellington.
