Friends in Christ, We all have gifts, entrusted to us by God. We are called to steward them well — to nurture them, and to make them fruitful, in the way in which we live our lives and follow the Lord. One way we can do this is by supporting the annual Catholic Ministries Appeal (CMA). Through the CMA, we do much more than simply pledge financial support. We actually participate in these ministries. We ourselves are feeding, teaching, and healing people in need throughout our local communities. On the back of this postcard, you will see the positive impact of the CMA throughout our Archdiocese. As a past contributor, I invite you to consider a gift again to this vital appeal. May God strengthen and bless you and our entire Archdiocese as we glorify God and serve Christ through the Catholic Ministries Appeal.
