Our Catholic Faith

Our Catholic Faith calls us to reach out and help whenever others are in need.  As people for the Gulf Coast suffer the devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina, our prayers and thoughts are very much with them.

 

We can help financially, too.  We invite you to contribute through Catholic Charities USA.  Complete information is in the right column of this page.

 

May God be with all those who suffer the effects of this disaster.  May they know our loving and prayerful support!

 

 

 

Help the Victims of Hurricane Katrina!

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of La Crosse Responds with Hurricane Katrina Relief

 

To help communities recover from the damage brought on by Hurricane Katrina, Catholic Charities USA is collecting financial donations that will fund agencies' emergency and long-term disaster recovery efforts.

 

Catholic Charities USA, which has been commissioned by the U.S. Catholic Bishops to represent the Catholic community in times of domestic disaster, responds with emergency and long-term assistance as needed. Its Disaster Response Office connects the Church's social service agencies and disaster planning offices across the nation.
