Diocesan Services Appeal 2021

Loving and gracious God, we praise you and we thank you for your Word and the bountiful gifts that you have given us.

Help us understand that your Word is alive here and now, active in the work of the Church and all who believe.

Help us embrace the Diocesan Services Appeal as a way to put your Word into action through the good works of your Holy Catholic Church.

Please bless our united efforts and help us to bring Christ’s love to all we encounter.

Amen.

“The word of God is at work in you who believe.”  This scripture text from the first letter of Paul to the Thessalonians affirms a fundamental truth and teaching of the Catholic Church – the word of God is alive here and now, it is active in you and in the work of all who believe.  Thanks be to God for His Holy Word!
 
DSA is an opportunity to put God’s word into action, to participate personally in the many good works of our Church in communion with fellow Catholics.  Our contributions are put to work, right away, in a multitude of ministries to offer direct assistance to individuals and families and to parishes, Catholic schools, and Catholic Charities agencies.

Our parish goal of $67,222 can be reached if each one of us shares a portion of the many blessings God has bestowed upon us. Please prayerfully consider how you or your family will respond to this call to carry on Christ’s work in our community.
