Bishop asks Diocese’s faithful to help those affected by Hurricane Laura

Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., issued this appeal to his flock Sept. 1:

Hurricane Laura has wreaked havoc in Louisiana and Texas, devastating families, and damaging and destroying homes and churches.  Here in New Jersey we are quite familiar with such experiences.  I invite you to consider contributing a gift to help rebuild and restore the lives of our affected sisters and brothers and their families through these dioceses or their Catholic Charities agencies.
