Join a broader Call to Prayer and receive short, new resources each week!

 

The bishops issued the Call to Prayer at the end of last year, inviting Catholics to pray for rebuilding a culture favorable to life and marriage and for increased protections of religious liberty. It continues through Christ the King Sunday (November 24).

 

There are several ways you can participate, some of which are praying a daily rosary, participating in the upcoming Fortnight for Freedom (June 21 - July 4), and signing the pledge to fast and abstain from meat on Fridays. 

 

Your prayer and action is continually needed as we work to transform our culture. 

 

Sign up to receive weekly reminders for the Friday Fast (see below) and join the Call to Prayer and Fortnight for Freedom Facebook events (see "More Resources!")!

 

Join the Friday Fasts!

Sign up to receive reminders with brief, new intention, reflection and "Did you know?" sections each week. 

To sign up for text message reminders, text the word FAST to 99000. You can also sign up to receive the reminders by email

Spiritual Reflections and Monthly Reflections on Mary by NCCW Spiritual Advisors

June Spiritual by Msgr. Xavier Mankel, Knoxville DCCW Spiritual Advisor

As early as the 1830s the troubles about slavery, secession, and civil liberties began.  Indeed the American Civil War was called the “present troubles” by some who viewed the war as more than just political furor. More...

May Reflection by Most Reverend James V. Johnston, Jr., Bishop of Springfield-Cape Girardeau, NCCW Episcopal Liaison

Mary’s maternal role in the life of each Christian is to assist us in finding and following her Son so that we may arrive at heaven when our lives come to an end. She does this by interceding for us, giving us confidence through her love and example, and by being proactive in our lives in other ways we do not realize. More...


April Reflection by Fr. Miguel Gonzalez, DCCW Spiritual Advisor, Diocese of Orlando, FL
 
Filled with the gift of Easter joy, the Church celebrates the fulfillment of a promise God made long ago to Abraham and His children forever. Our Blessed Mother was chosen by God to be the first one among us to see, hear, and touch, the Word made flesh.

Opportunities to Support NCCW!
Join the NCCW Legacy Circle and the 100th Birthday Club today

Supporting NCCW financially is a demonstration of support and commitment and we appreciate all of the members who have contributed over the years. The Legacy Circle represents an opportunity to provide sustained support to NCCW over a decade. With a pledge of $10,000 over 10 years and an annual contribution of at least $1,000, a member can contribute significantly to the mission of NCCW. Click here for the Legacy Circle Pledge Form.

In addition, in honor of NCCW’s upcoming 100th birthday in 2020, members who contribute $1,000 from now through 2020, will become members of the 100th Birthday Club. [Those joining the Club in 2013 will need to complete their total $1,000 pledge by 2020.] Later they will also receive pins designating these special giving levels. Click here for the 100th Birthday Club Pledge Form.

You can contribute to either the Legacy Circle or the 100th Birthday Club online! You can also send a check to the NCCW office with your pledge form.

In addition, bequests to NCCW represent another important component of our overall planned giving efforts. In the past, NCCW benefited directly from substantial bequests. However, in recent years, this giving opportunity has not received as much emphasis. We want to encourage members to consider recognizing NCCW in their wills. If you have already identified NCCW in your will, please let us know so we can thank you and acknowledge this important contribution. If you have not yet recognized NCCW, we encourage you to consider naming NCCW in your will.

Giving clearly demonstrates your faith and your commitment to NCCW and will ensure that NCCW continues to thrive today and in the future.  Click here to read the Planned Giving brochure.
