Special Collection for the Franciscan Center for Urban Ministry Give now
Our special collection on Holy Thursday is to support the Franciscan Center for Urban Ministry. Located in downtown Hartford, we strive to meet a growing demand for quality community services reaching out to a diverse population, especially the poor, the alienated, and those seeking educational opportunities.
The Center reaches out not only to a diverse community but to area neighborhoods, cities, and towns. The Franciscan Center for Urban Ministry is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is supported through grants, fundraisers, and the generosity of people who offer their financial support as well as time and talent to help us in building this thriving ministry.

Pontifical Good Friday Collection
Last day to give: March 31, 2024 Give here
Every year on Good Friday, a collection is taken up in Catholic Churches to support the work of the Franciscans working in the Holy Land. Christians there rely heavily on the help that comes to them from this worldwide collection.
The Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in America is part of a world-wide network of Commissariats of the Holy Land which function as bridges between the Holy Land and Christians all over the world. The Franciscan Monastery in Washington, D.C., coordinates this vital support for the work of the Franciscans who work in the Holy Land.
The Franciscans of the Custody of the Holy Land have the unique responsibility to care for the Holy Places as well for the “Living Stones,” the Christians living there. It is vital that we support Christians living in the Holy Land, in order to maintain a Christian presence in the very land made holy by the life, death and Resurrection of Jesus.
