This year has brought its own set of challenges and rewards, reminding us of the strength and resilience found through our faith. Despite the obstacles, we have much to be thankful for. The continued support from our community makes a
significant impact on the good works of the Church. There are many who need our care, and this campaign reaches out to those who need our support most. This weekend across our Parish we will hold the annual Catholic Campaign and I encourage you to once again support it this year.
The Annual Catholic Campaign reminds us that we are part of the larger Church. Our parishes work together to support vital ministries and services. Funds raised will support ministries that directly impact our parish, such as:
- Training future priests.
- Caring for elderly priests when they become frail and unwell.
- Helping struggling families access a Catholic education.
- Caring for those suffering both physically and emotionally in our local community.
- There is also the option to make a non-tax-deductible gift to help fund grassroots ministry, and a place for prayer in our Archdiocese.
When making your gift, please put your donation inside the envelope provided so it remains separate from the parish
collection. If you add your details to the envelope you will receive a tax receipt in the mail. Over the years, our parish has given generously and together we have made a lasting impact on the lives of so many people in our community. Thank you for your generosity and for making sure our Church is here to help in times of need.
If you have not come prepared for the appeal you are invited to take home an envelope and return it next week.
God Bless.
