Annual Pastoral Appeal
The Annual Pastoral Appeal is an opportunity to educate our faithful about the ministries of our Church and obtain their support for these ministries benefitting every parish and our community.
The Appeal raises approximately 68% of the support needed for all the liturgical, faith formation, parish support, educational and service ministries benefitting hundreds of thousands of people annually in our five -county area.
The Annual Pastoral Appeal is a partnership between all parishes, the Office of Stewardship and Development and the Campaign Accounting Office.
The Office of Stewardship and Development prepares and distributes all APA materials, produces the APA video, offers training, arranges for guest speakers, and provides ongoing support to the parish leadership for all aspects of the Appeal. Parishes are asked to promote the Annual Pastoral Appeal, present APA information to parishioners, and support efforts to attract gifts. The Campaign Accounting Office records all pledges and payments and reports on a regular basis the progress of the Appeal to all donors, parishes and the Diocese.
With God's good grace and much gratitude,
Jeanne Smith, Parish Resource Specialist
