On the weekend of November 19-20, parishes will be taking a collection for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). Founded in 1970 by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, CCHD aids domestic anti-poverty organizations that support community and economic development programs nationally and locally. One organization receiving CCHD grants in our archdiocese is Hispanic Outreach of Goodhue County. They advocate for equal and just treatment of Hispanic people including housing, safety and immigration rights.

Please help to support those “Working on the Margins” and improve the lives of struggling individuals nationwide and in our communities.
