Last weekend, February 17 and 18, the Parish of the Immaculate Conception of Pozos de Santa Ana (Costa Rica) celebrated the Heart Solidarity Campaign 2023/24, with the motto “Greater value in little things”.
In the Eucharistic celebrations of the previous days, since two weeks before, as well as in social networks, it was announced that the collections of that weekend would be destined to this purpose. It was also published on social networks, where the social work of ARCORES Costa Rica was also explained.
ARCORES collaborators
Many members of the parish participated in this celebration: the different parish groups (catechesis, educational pastoral, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion, liturgy group, social pastoral, cultural pastoral…); the volunteers and beneficiaries of the ARCORES projects (Calle Esperanza and Maestros de Esperanza); and the members of the Fraternidad Seglar Agustina-Recoleta.
To all of them, Victor Gonzalez OAR, president of ARCORES Costa Rica, explained the slogan chosen this year. Thus, all these collaborators were the ones who went to the Eucharistic celebrations of the parish to carry the message and collect the contributions in cash.
