Retired Priests Collection Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Following consultation with the Presbyteral Council of the Diocese of Las Vegas, we have initiated a new, annual special llection bene-fitting the Retired Priests of the Diocese of Las Vegas. It will be called the Diocese of Las Vegas Retired Priests Collection, and will be taken up on Sunday, December 15, 2019, the Third Sunday of Advent.
Las Vegas priests have selflessly ministered to the faithful of our community, continuing Christ’s mission. They have served us for de-cades; in some cases, for over half a century. Our priests have been there for each of us and for our families, providing spiritual support year in and year out, throughout our lives. Please join the faithful today in being there for them, to assist them in the dignity of their retirement and to honor their lives of service through this annual Retired Priests Collection.
The Retired Priests Collection takes place annu-ally on the Third Sunday of Advent. This year’s collection will take place on Sunday, December 15, 2019. Envelopes have been provided by your parish for you to enclose your support. You may also send a check made payable to Retired Priests Collection to your parish, or donate online where this option exists. Thank you for your generosity. I especially thank you for praying for future priestly vocations in our diocese, so that upon their ordinations, they
may build upon the good work of these selfless priest servants.
Asking our Lord Jesus, our great High Priest, to continue to bless you and your families, I remainSincerely yours in Christ,
