Giving Opportunities of the Season

at the Cathedral



Most of us are inundated with requests at this time of year, in the mail, on television, and with every group to which we may have a connection. Very few of us are in a position to donate to all and some of us are dealing with our own financial hardships. In addition to ongoing support of our parish, please accept this as a sharing of

information should any of these opportunities be those you choose to support.  


 

 

2025 Catholic Services Appeal

Let us give hope to all as we join our prayers and gifts with others across our archdiocese to meet critical needs. Thanks to those who have already responded with a gift to the 2025 Catholic Services Appeal.

2025 Retirement Fund for Religious

December 13/14

Women and men religious have spent their lives serving others in prayer, ministry, education, and care for those in need — usually for little or no pay. Today, their religious communities do not have enough retirement savings. As religious men and women age, they require essential care and medications. Please support them by giving to the Retirement Fund for Religious. Your donation makes a difference for over 21,000 senior men and women religious. For more information, go to: retiredreligious.org. Please place your donation in the offertory basket at Mass in an envelope marked: Retirement Fund for Religious.
