At the heart of our Catholic faith is the call to love and serve others, following the example of Christ. Through the Catholic Ministries Appeal (CMA), you have a unique opportunity to live out this call by supporting ministries that have a profound impact on our community. Your generosity enables us to carry out the mission of the Church in many vital ways.
Supporting Faith Formation
Your donations play a crucial role in funding faith formation programs. These programs provide religious education for children, youth ministries, and adult faith enrichment. By supporting these initiatives, you help nurture the spiritual growth of Catholics of all ages, ensuring that our faith is passed on to future generations.
Empowering Catholic Charities
Catholic Charities serve as a beacon of hope for those in need, offering essential services to the poor, the hungry, and the marginalized. The CMA funds these charities, allowing them to provide critical support such as food, shelter, and counseling. Your contribution directly aids these efforts, extending the compassion of Christ to the most vulnerable in our society.
Fostering Vocations
The future of our Church depends on vocations to the priesthood, diaconate, and religious life. The CMA supports the education and formation of seminarians, deacons, and religious men and women. Your donation helps ensure that we have dedicated leaders to guide and serve our faith communities for years to come.
Sustaining Other Vital Ministries
In addition to faith formation and charitable services, the CMA supports a wide array of other ministries that are essential to the Church’s mission. This includes The Office of Human Life, Family and Bioethics which enunciates and promotes the principle that human life, at all stages from conception to natural death, is a gift from God, worthy of respect and protection. This ministry encompasses prayer, education, advocacy, care, and services.
