Annual Diocesan Appeal Thanks to the generosity of 233 parish families, we are well on our way towards our goal of $49,060. Each gift is important to the mission of the diocese. If you have not yet had the opportunity, please return a pledge card with your response today. There are cards in the center pews in the back of church or at the front doors. Your gift helps support the central ministries of our diocese including religious education of our young peo-ple, faith formation of adults, training of our future priests, Newman Centers on our college campuses and much more. Together we can accomplish many works of faith, hope and charity. Every dollar raised over our goal will be kept in the parish to help us build up our 365 Youth Group. To those who have contributed, we are most grateful.
