The Catholic Church in Montenegro has raised €22,000 to help the victims of the 29 December earthquake in Croatia, the Kotor Diocese said on Sunday.

The money was paid to the Sisak Diocese by the Kotor Diocese and the Bar Archdiocese. It was collected in parishes and via the Church’s account.

The Kotor Diocese thanked “everyone who took part in this as well as the many other humanitarian drives in Montenegro in which money for the victims was collected.”
