This year’s theme, Go Forward with God’s Mission, calls us to embrace the journey ahead with courage and trust in God’s providence. It is a reminder that our faith is not static; it is a living, dynamic force propelling us to action, to serve others, and to share the Good News with all. Through your generous support, the Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries touches countless lives across our Archdiocese.

You can support archdiocesan parishes and schools,
and more than 100 worthwhile life-affirming ministries by making your pledge or gift today
to Go Forward with God’s Mission, the 2025 Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries.

Appeal gifts are never used for purposes other than those stipulated in the Appeal Spending Plan, as depicted in this End of Year Summary. 

Your contributions to the Annual Appeal are securely managed as part of a separate, perpetual, and irrevocable trust established in 1992, exclusively used for these vital ministries and restricted from being used for any other purposes.

A Prayer to Accept Your Invitation

Lord,

help enable me to accept Your invitation

to grow closer to You

to express thanks for Your sacrifice

to join my fellow faithful

as guests at Your table

to recognize, yes, the suffering You went through,

but also the divine joy You bring to my life

to share that joy with others

to help draw that joy out from them

to help grow and strengthen Your community

to decipher Your singular and inherent goodness,

allowing it to enfold and enwrap me

so that, nestled in its abundance,

I am empowered to serve as but one

of Your many

missionary disciples.
