There will be a second collection on June 28th for the Peter’s Pence. Peter’s Pence is a traditional annual collection through which Catholics worldwide, dating to the 7th century, make voluntary offerings directly to the Pope. These funds empower the pontiff to respond to global emergencies, support vulnerable populations, and finance the Administrative operations of the Holy See.
