The theme of this year's Annual Catholic Appeal is Together at the Table. It evokes the Last Supper and the story of the two disciples on the way to Emmaus who are together at the table with the Lord. In these images, we know ourselves as gathered together, as fed the Eucharist, and as missionary disciples sent into the world.
Closely connected to this is Pope Francis' call for a synodal Church, that is, a Church "on the road together." When we are together at the table, the altar of the Lord's sacrifice, we find the true means that sustain us on our shared journey homeward.
Please consider donating to support this year's Appeal, so that together we can be instruments of God's grace.
Remember that when our parish exceeds its goal, any additional funds received above the goal amount are returned for use in our parish to support our wonderful ministries.
