  • Koch Foundation 2016 Annual Report
    1 Mission STATEMENT Carl Koch’s belief that he was “just a steward of the finances given by God to use on His behalf” inspired the commitment he and his wife, Paula, made to founding the Koch Foundation in 1979. The Foundation’s goals are to strengthen and to propagate the Roman Catholic faith by providing grant support for a wide variety of evangelization efforts. In considering applications, major emphasis is placed on sound but financially needy evangelical programs. The Koch Foundation is international in scope with no geographical preference. Carl & Paula Koch 2 Letter from the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR As a child attending Catholic Schools I was always taught that angels were all around us as our unseen protectors. I still remember my third grade teacher Sister Peter Favor telling my classmate that we were going to wear out our guardian angels who were working overtime to keep us out of trouble. In religious education we often read stories of angels sent to do God’s will such as the angel sent to keep Abraham from sacrificing Isaac to, the Archangel Gabriel announcing the birth of John the Baptist and the birth of Jesus. Angels have two purposes, to worship God and through all eternity and to assist us during our life so that when we die we join them in heaven to praise God. We are told that there are nine choirs of angels: the thrones are angels of pure humility, peace and submission. They reside in the area of the cosmos where material form begins to take shape.

Carl and Paula Koch 2 Letter From The Executive Director I have been blessed in my life to have had several family members who chose to dedicate their lives in service to God, so there has never been a time when I did not visit my relatives and see a cousin dressed all in black with a worn yet beloved Rosary tucked carefully into her simple belt. I can remember as a young child Sister teaching me to say the Rosary and telling me that whenever I attended Mass I was to pray the Rosary. That memory has stayed with me into adulthood and, when I became a mother, the Rosary took on a special and personal meaning. I found I was praying the Rosary more often and usually for something concerning my son and family. I began to realize that I needed the solace I could only fi nd by praying the Rosary. Like many parents, in addition to my work at the Foundation I am also my son’s chauff eur, carting him to and from various sports events.

PRESIDENT’S REPORT As we gather for this National Assembly in 2019, we recall the gifts and challenges that have been ours during this past twelve months. At our Assembly in 2018 we launched the new National CRA structure. The CRA Council was entrusted to carry forward the vision of this reality across Australia. This was an exciting opportunity in which to be involved. It required both delighting in the birthing of the new and at the same time engaging with the experience of transition. Of significance has been the establishment of the CRA committees, the State networking bodies and the work of the CRA council as well as the development of the secretariat. There is much to celebrate and appreciate in what has been achieved. During these days of the Assembly, the Council will shall share with you the next phase of the implementation of this National CRA structure. Embracing the Vision of the National CRA Structure At the heart of this vision has been our on-going commitment to participation in the mission of God.
