OUR CHRISTMAS COLLECTION

How have priests helped you through difficult or stressful times? How have priests helped you grow closer to our Lord and to each other? How can you help prepare the men who will serve your parish in the years to come? What can we do to show our gratitude for the priests who have ministered to us? The Christmas collection will give us the opportunity to assist the diocese in funding the formation of our future priests – our seminarians – and meeting the needs of our retired diocesan priests. We ask you to generously support Those Clergy Who Have Served and Those Clergy Who Will Serve. Even though we have recently completed a diocesan endowment campaign for these needs, many of those pledges will not be completed for a few years, making this collection still necessary at this time.
