Each year, the Collection for the Church in Central and Eastern Europe (CCEE) assists Catholics, many of whom live in countries once dominated by the Soviet regime, with rebuilding their communities. This important collection supports 28 countries in a myriad of ways, from providing funds to rebuild church structures to supporting programs that lift up the dignity of the marginalized to offering scholarships that reinforce the intellectual life of the Church. By taking up this collection at Mass, you help to build the future for the faithful in this region.
