Responding to the War in Ukraine
March 1, 2022: Ukrainian Emergency Appeal
On February 24, the Russian military attacked Ukraine. Hundreds of thousands of persons have already sought refuge outside of Ukraine. Others have remained in the country or are displaced from their homes. The humanitarian crisis is accelerating in Ukraine as well as in neighboring countries as the violence escalates and the number of people on the move multiples. Here is one way you can help. 100% of your generosity goes to help. No overhead is taken from your donations!
Tax-deductable Checks, payable to RCC and marked Ukraine can be sent to the Church.
