Dear Parishioners,

Because of the generosity of all parishioners throughout the diocese, the Catholic Charities 2019 Appeal has raised $11,030,397.00! There were a total of 39,719 donors! Their goal was 13.5 million. The annual Appeal is not over. Anyone may contribute at any time. Call Karen Joyce at 1-800-869-6525 x1910 or visit https://www.catholiccommunity.org/ways-to-give/donate-online for additional information.

Our number of donors is superb! Immaculate Heart of Mary had 359 donors to date. These donors pledged a total of $77,804.00, and so far Catholic Charities has collected from our donors $68,643.00!

Again, how tremendous you are in aiding the many needs of the annual Catholic Charities Appeal. I want you all to be aware that the impact of your contributions is greatly appreciated by the many services of the Catholic Charities Program in the diocese, and especially at Camp Christopher where Camp Scholarships, Cabin Renovations, and Adaptive Programs can take place!

Your financial support makes a difference and transforms lives.

Many blessings,
Father Jim
