The Archdiocese of Philadelphia joined Catholic Relief Services  to launch CRS Rice Bowl this year during a program Monday afternoon, Jan. 27, at St. Martin de Porres Parish in Philadelphia. Father Steven D. Thorne, pastor of the parish, welcomed representative of CRS and Bishop John McIntyre, who led prayers for the success of the effort which last year raised almost $400,000 in the archdiocese.
