We have received the following letter from CAFOD in response to the tragedy in Haiti:

‘As you know, people are removing rubble with their bare hands to find
survivors in Haiti, where a massive earthquake measuring 7.0 on the
Richter scale has devastated the capital.  We fear that more than three
million people could be in need of shelter, food, clean drinking water and medicine. We know that you will be concerned about the people affected by this disaster and will want to do what you can to help.  Because the need is so urgent, we would like you to hold a special collection in your parish this weekend for the CAFOD Haiti Earthquake Appeal.’’

There will be a retiring collection to help CAFOD’s efforts in rescuing and caring for people. Please be generous in your support. Thank you.
