The Appeal's goal this year is $21million used to support ministries, schools, parishes, charitable works, and clergy needs. Your gift is allocated to these areas:
1.Pastoral Administration, Grants, and Services- helping with adult discipleship programs, marriage formation, respect life, youth faith formation, young adult ministry, grants to the parishes to help in their own local ministries in these areas.
2.Retired Priests, Priestly Education and Formation Programs- supporting students at St. Joseph's Seminary, and retired clergy at the St. John Vianney Center for retired clergy.
3.Financial Assistance for Struggling Parishes- helping out those parishes that are financially vulnerable and in need of meeting their financial obligations.
4.Catholic Education- helping elementary and high schools throughout the archdiocese.
5.Charitable Outreach- for supporting Catholic Charities in supporting those in need.
Our parish goal for St. Kateri is $114,000. This is an increase from last year's goal of $110,500 but thanks to your generosity we exceeded that goal with a final total of $142,320.65. Thank you very much!
