I hope this message finds you and your loved ones healthy and well. These have been challenging times over the past two years, but please know you have my support and the support of our parish.
The Annual Catholic Appeal will launch next weekend, and I wanted to share with you the impact your gift – no matter the size – has on this important effort.
The work supported by the Appeal is more important than ever. Gifts to the Annual Catholic Appeal directly support the necessary work of parishes, Catholic schools, and vital ministries throughout the archdiocese.
You can make your gift to the Annual Catholic Appeal online at annualcatholicappeal.com, or you can choose to send in the response envelope from the Cardinal’s letter you may have received earlier in January or the envelopes you will receive at the masses on February 19 and 20.
As we begin to come out of the fog and uncertainty of the pandemic, we also recognize this opportunity to be truly present to one another and care for those who are struggling. May we continue to pray for all those affected by COVID-19, those who are caring for the sick and each other.
Yours in Christ, Father Larry Sanders, C.Ss.R.
