We have all witnessed the news reports about how many lost their lives and many more are without homes, power and necessities.  This collection is not mandatory but is encouraged to support emergency relief efforts in the Diocese of Owensboro.  Thank you for your prayers for all those who have been affected and for sharing this opportunity to assist our brothers and sisters in the Diocese of Owensboro. More information is available in the Statement on Tornadoes from Bishop Stowe.
