2022 Catholic Ministries Annual Appeal Is Underway

“Devoted to the Works of the Lord ”

Pledge Your Gift to the CMAA

The 2022 Catholic Ministries Annual Appeal (CMAA) is underway. The Appeal not only funds many of the operations of the diocese, it funds services that are of great help right here in our parish. For example, the funds support the Faith Formation Program here at Holy Ghost, as well as the Seminarian program to educate our future priests. Catholic Charities helped feed our hungry brothers and sisters with their mobile food pantry during the pandemic.

Please prayerfully reflect on how you can best support our annual appeal and help our parish reach its goal of $58,300. This year’s CMAA theme is “Devoted to the Works of the Lord.” In this spirit, the 30 ministries our CMAA supports, help us do God’s work here on earth. Providing for these ministries is not only beyond the means of any one parish, the ministries benefit all of us, including our most vulnerable brothers and sisters. Every gift is important to the success of the CMAA.

Each pledge helps us to reach our goal. With your financial support, we can exceed this goal. Seventy percent of the amount we raise over our goal will be returned to our parish, for our needs.            

Please make a commitment to the CMAA today by completing the pledge envelope that was mailed to you, or call the Parish Office at 630-860-2975. To watch a video about the appeal, or to make a gift online go to  www.jolietdioceseappeal.org or text “Donate” to 815-205-1949 from your mobile phone. Pledges can be paid in ten (10) installments.  Our parish is counting on you for your support. Thank you for making the most generous pledge possible to this year’s CMAA.
