CHANCERY NOTICE

Fundraising for the Macau Catholic Family Advisory Council

Bishop Stephen Lee announces the following: The Macau Catholic Family Advisory Council, a social service organization under the Diocese, has long provided various services to local residents and Catholic families in the spirit of charity. However, in recent years, the Counseling Center in Ilha Verde has faced financial difficulties, resulting in ongoing losses that affect the stability of its services.

To support the continuation of these services, it is hereby announced that on the Third Sunday of Lent (8^th March), during Mass in all parishes, a second collection will be taken. All funds raised will be used to support the operating expenses of the Council’s Counseling Center.

We sincerely appeal to all brothers and sisters in Christ to uphold the spirit of charity, give generously, and support the Family Advisory Council, so that more families in need may continue to benefit.

Given at the Chancery Office, 24^th February 2026.

Fr. Cyril Jerome Law, Jr.

Chancellor
