2021 Parish Goal: $103,000
The Mission of the Pastoral Services Appeal is to bring people toward the path of having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. These ministries are out of the scope of support of one individual parish, thus we need a collective of all parishes in the Diocese to help in maintaining them.
The Pastoral Services Appeal provides:
· Retirement income for diocesan priests
· Formation for 24 seminarians, vocations, and ongoing education for our priests and deacons.
· Support services to more than 342,000 families through Catholic Charities.
· Education and learning support to over 17,000 families through our Catholic Schools.
· Diocesan run Ministries: Catholic Deaf Community, Restorative Justice and Detention Ministry, and parishes in need.
It is also a great support to our parish because 100% of funds raised above our parish goal return to the parish.
Last year numbers:
Goal | Pledges Paid | Funds Returned |
---|---|---|
$95,000 | $153,763 | $58,763 |
If all parishioners could give something to PSA and those who gave last year could match their gift this year, we can exceed our goal and have funds come back to us for our parish needs.
Gifts can be paid monthly in 10 months or you can make a one-time gift.
