WE NEED YOUR HELP!

The annual reports have been submitted by our

FaithWorks' ministry partners.

The need for FaithWorks’ ministry partners’ services has

INCREASED ANOTHER 32%

this past year on top of the

35% INCREASE

the previous year.

That's an almost 70% increase in people served

over the last two years!

But, we are on track

to just barely raise the same funding as last year!

We need your help.

Please be extra generous!

Let's make this truly a

SEASON OF GIVING

and are almost there!

Help us reach our target by Christmas!

A generous donor has offered a $100,000 matching challenge grant for all new and increased donations. This means for every dollar you donate over last year’s amount, as an individual or parish, FaithWorks receives an extra dollar. We encourage you to make a special effort this year.
