My dear friends in Christ,
This weekend is PLEDGE SUNDAY for the Annual Catholic Appeal throughout the Diocese of Trenton. Each year the Bishop seeks the support of all members of the Diocese to further the work of our ministries. Each of us has a vital part in all we do in Christ’s name, and each of us can share in all we do with a gift to the Annual Catholic Appeal. Our single Act of Faith propels the works of love that build up our Church. You make that happen with a generous gift to the Annual Catholic Appeal.
This year, Corpus Christi’s share of the goal is $55,000. As the people of the Diocese of Trenton, you have an opportunity to help others see Christ working in our midst. I ask you to take a moment and truly reflect on any help you can give. We truly need everyone to participate. This year, we again are striving to reach our Diocesan goal of $7 Million dollars.
This year, on the pledge card, you have the opportunity to designate where you want your gift to go. The options include the Ministry where it is needed most: for Priests, Deacons and Religious; for Community Outreach; or for Teaching the Faith.
I am always grateful and moved by the level of support you give to our parish. I thank you for this support. Together, let’s do our part in making the 2020 Annual Catholic Appeal a success here at Corpus Christi Church.
May God bless you all,
Father John
