Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York is sponsoring #12DaysOfChristmas, an opportunity to perform acts of charity while enjoying fun-filled family activities. Participants are asked to follow along beginning Dec. 26:

12 Days of Christmas Challenge: Day 12, Pray for Someone in Need

Charity is no stranger to prayer. Prayer is powerful. Prayer is love. Your Final #12DaysOfChristmas Challenge, Day Twelve, is to pray for someone in your own way. Whether you are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, or of another faith, praying for someone is a selfless act of charity for your neighbors. It brings us closer in relationships and to the things that need our attention. As we wrap up our Catholic Charities 12 Days of Charity Challenge, we hope that you will pray for all those in our city and in the world, that they may find comfort in these 12 actions of charity and that through our participation we may inspire others to become involved in providing help and creating hope every day of the year.

Be sure to visit our volunteer portal for fun and exciting volunteer opportunities throughout the year.

Tell us why prayer is important to you using #TeamCatholicCharities.  Post a photo of your place of worship or quiet place of reflection to meet this challenge.

The Mass of the Lord’s Supper will begin at 5:30 p.m. today and will be celebrated by His Eminence, Timothy Cardinal Dolan.
