The special second collection taken up this month assists the African American, and Alaskan Native Catholic communities through the Commission for Catholic Missions. Everyone is encouraged to support the Catholic missions in the United States and to consider a donation to the Commission's efforts to serve minority communities. Your support affects the daily pastoral work of our bishops, consecrated religious women and men, and lay-leadership who labor througout the United States as disciples of Jesus and witnesses to our common faith. Financial donations to the Commission for Catholic Missions provides funding for resources and personnel training to carry out the mission entrusted to the Church in places that would otherwise not experience excellent ministry. A school in our own Diocese, Bishop Manogue Catholic High School, receives a grant from the Commission for Catholic Missions, which serves as tuition assistance for Native American and African American students who would otherwise be unable to afford Catholic education in our Diocese. Please consider a donation to assist Catholic raqcial minorities and their needs.
With every best wish and an assurance of prayers, I remain, Yours in Christ, Most Reverend Daniel H. Mueggenborg Bishop of Reno
