The 2015 Diocesan Development Drive will start next weekend, January 31 and February 1. The DDD is the one Diocesan-wide appeal that provides support for ministries, including seminarian and diaconate formations, education – both in Catholic schools and in Parish Religious Education programs – outreach to those in need, and our youth. All parishioners will be receiving a letter from Bishop Wester with a brochure inviting participation in this year’s appeal. Once a year, each of us is called to make a commitment to support the work of our diocesan family, work beyond the reach of any one parish. Our parish goal is 100% participation. Please take some time to prayerfully discern your gift to the 2015 Diocesan Development Drive. Your generosity will allow our Catholic Community to continue the many vital programs and services that touch the lives of our brothers and sisters in Christ.
