Colorado churches to help tornado victims Following the deadly tornados that hit central Oklahoma last month, the U.S. bishops have asked dioceses around the country, including the Archdiocese of Denver, to help victims through a special collection during weekend Masses June 23 or July 7. On May 20 a tornado struck the Oklahoma City suburb of Moore killing 24 people and leaving more than 200 others injured. Just 11 days later, the western suburbs of Oklahoma City were hit by a tornado that killed 19 people in the storm and flooding that followed. Financial contributions will help provide shelter and supplies, rebuild homes, and restore hope. The struggling areas have experienced an outpouring of "prayer, love and support from across our great state and from around the nation," according to Oklahoma City Archbishop Paul S. Coakley. "It is bringing comfort to those who have lost loved ones, suffered injuries and whose homes, businesses and properties have been damaged or destroyed," he wrote in a column in the archdiocesan newspaper Sooner Catholic June 2. In a letter to pastors of the Denver Archdiocese, Msgr. Thomas Fryar, V.G., moderator of the curia, commended the faithful of northern Colorado for past responses in assisting "brothers and sisters in other areas of our country" following natural disasters. "I want to thank you again for your care for those beyond the borders of our parishes," he wrote. "May the Lord bless us all as we show his kindness, his generosity, and his compassion to those in need." Funds collected will be forwarded to Catholic Charities, USA, the domestic relief agency of the Church in the United States.
