During Lent, one way to undertake a special charitable work is to put a little cash aside each week to support the overseas missions of Caritas Australia.

Special boxes or envelopes are available at the church doors into which you may place a small gift each week. Caritas Australia does a great deal of work supporting less fortunate communities in overseas countries.
