Collection for the Needs of the Church in Canada: Support for the Bishops of Canada to proclaim the Good News As his term as President of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) draws to a close, Bishop Lionel Gendron, P.S.S., Bishop of Saint-Jean-Longueuil, expresses his sincere appreciation for the breadth and abundance of work accomplished by dioceses/eparchies, regional episcopal assemblies, and the CCCB as a national conference.
Support of this annual collection for the country’s Bishops “will help us achieve our goals, and to proclaim the Good News in Canada.”
The Collection for the Needs of the Church in Canada will take place 28 and 29 September. This annual charitable initiative assists the Bishops in their ministry of accompanying, teaching, guiding, sanctifying and caring for the Church in Canada.
