FORWARD IN FAITH: 2024 CATHOLIC APPEAL
“Every gift to the Appeal, no matter the amount, has meaning and purpose, and
every gift plays an integral part in the vital mission of the Archdiocese of Boston.”
– Cardinal Seán O’Malley
Dear Friends,
We’re very excited to launch the Catholic Appeal in 2024!
Once a year, Catholics throughout the Archdiocese are asked to partner with one another to support their parish and the many outreach ministries by contributing to the Catholic Appeal. Many of you have received a letter from Cardinal Seán requesting your participation and early support of the 2024 Appeal.
I invite you to take a few minutes to watch this year’s video message from Cardinal Seán.
How does your gift move us ‘forward in faith?’ The annual Catholic Appeal funds the Archdiocese’s ministries that put our faith into action to support our parishes, schools, and communities. These ministries directly support our parish communities, so by supporting the Catholic Appeal, you are also supporting our parishes in different ways to help those in need, enrich parish life, and educate our children, among countless other meaningful and necessary endeavors to keep our Catholic community vibrant and strong.
We hope that you will respond to his invitation with a generous gift, knowing that each contribution has a significant impact on the lives of thousands across the Archdiocese. The Appeal is a primary means by which we care for our brothers and sisters and move forward in our faith together.
Every gift makes a meaningful difference! Donations can be made by completing the Appeal envelopes found in the pews of our churches, or online at www.bostoncatholicappeal.org. For those who have already made a gift, thank you for your early support!
To learn more about how your gift makes an impact, go to the Boston Catholic Appeal website.
As always, I am so grateful for your support and everything that you do for our parish community.
Wishing you a blessed and peaceful Lent,
Father Mark Mahoney, St. Julia Parish Pastor
