My brothers and sisters in Christ:
Recently, I visited one of our priests in the hospital. I was comforted to see how our priest chaplains and pastoral visitors care for our priests and for all who suffer and seek the healing presence of Christ in moments of illness. This ministry — and many like it — is made possible through your support of the Diocesan Services Fund (DSF).
DSF supports 64 ministries that bring Christ’s mercy and hope to many by forming young disciples, supporting Catholic schools, and serving families and neighbors in need.
This year’s DSF theme, drawn from Pope Leo XIV’s motto "In Illo Uno Unum" (“In the One, We are One,”) reminds us that in Christ we find our peace, our strength, and our purpose. Your generosity to DSF is a living witness of the communion we share as His disciples. Together, we bring the Gospel and the compassion of Christ to those most in need.
I invite you to renew your support today at and help ensure the Church remains a beacon of unity, faith, and love for all who turn to it.
Thank you for your faith, your love of the Church, and your generous support.
