Corpus Christi Watershed is a 501(c)3 public charity dedicated to exploring and embodying as our calling the relationship of religion, culture, and the arts. This non-profit organization employs the creative media in service of theology, the Church, and Christian culture for the enrichment and enjoyment of the public.

* Thirteen Men & Coins (Holy Thursday Appeal)

This “coin” business seems providential—inasmuch as our appeal begins on Holy Thursday this year.
