Hurricane Harvey is significantly impacting the Texas coastal area. The Catholic Church in Texas is coordinating its response through the bishops of the 15 dioceses. At this time cash contributions are of greatest need. Donations can be made to any Texas Catholic Charities or local St. Vincent de Paul Society. Money given to Catholic Charities outside of the coastal area or inland areas experiencing damage, will be used to assist evacuees, or sent to dioceses directly affected. See link below.
The Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops will continue to provide advisories as the storm develops and needs change. Please follow us @TXCatholic on Facebook and Twitter, and on our website at
txcatholic.org to stay updated on how you can assist our sisters and brothers in need.
