“One way we can act on our mission as a community of believers is by supporting Together We Serve, our annual outreach of charity to many who need our help.
Excerpt of a letter from Richard W. Smith, Archbishop of Edmonton
I ask everyone, as we heed the call to embrace our Baptism, to consider the needs of the parish, the Archdiocese, our institutions and the community in general, and to respond generously.
Your gifts through Together We Serve enable us to make a greater difference as a family than we ever could as individuals.”
See the Archdiocese page for more information, and a video presentation.
