Dear Friends:

 
In light of this weeks' visit by Bishop Manz and colleagues who work with Catholic Migration and Refugee Services (MRS), I thought I would send you this link to highlight the activities of MRS.  Again, these links are good to uplift in parish meetings to give our parish leadership a sense of the broader mission of the Church. They also give our people an idea of what our second collections support.  http://www.usccb.org/about/migration-and-refugee-services/
