The funds collected in this special appeal will be used to support the pastoral and reconstruction needs of the Church as well as the efforts of Catholic Relief Services and/or Catholic Charities USA, the official relief agencies of the U.S. Catholic Church, as they and their local agencies respond to immediate emergency needs and aid in long-term rebuilding and recovery efforts.
As a reminder, those individuals interested in helping with local disaster recovery efforts in North Carolina are encouraged to visit the Catholic Charities website.
We join with the faithful throughout our diocese and the world, in praying for protection, healing and support for those affected by this devastating storm.
