Peter's Pence Collection July 6, 2024
-
June 14, 2024The Peter’s Pence Collection is scheduled to be held in the Archdiocese on the weekend of July 6, 2024. Peter’s Pence is a gesture of solidarity through which every member of the faithful can participate in the activity of the Pope as Pastor of the universal Church.
Parishioners’ contributions to the Peter’s Pence Collection help fund not only all the activities of the departments of the Roman Curia that assist the Pope in the exercise of his ministry but also a number of solidarity projects that aid those most in need. To learn more about how Peter’s Pence supports the Holy Father’s ministry of mercy, visit https://www.obolodisanpietro.va/en/cos-e-l-obolo.html (English) or https://www.obolodisanpietro.va/es/cos-e-l-obolo.html (español).
“The faithful’s offerings to the Holy Father through the Peter’s Pence Collection are destined to Church needs, to humanitarian initiatives and social promotion projects, as well as to the support of the Holy See.”
