This weekend, we will be taking up the National Collection for The Catholic University of America. As the national university of the Catholic Church, it is unique among Catholic universities in the United States. Its mission centers on serving the Church through education and research - a service that is greatly needed today. University faculty and scholars promote Catholic social teaching and, through their research and discourse, help form the Church’s response to challenging social issues of our time. In addition, CUA educates hundreds of priests and religious each year and can proudly call over 12,000 of them alumni.
Please consider giving generously in support of this critical institution for our Church and nation.
