Office of the Catholic Ministries Appeal Supporting Dramatic Missionary Growth As we commemorate the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary this month, Pope Francis calls on us to pray "that she guard us and sustain us, that we may have a strong faith, joyful and merciful: that she help us to be holy, to meet her, one day in paradise." THANK YOU! Through your support of the Catholic Ministries Appeal you help to spread the joy of our faith with others! Ministries for our young people empower them to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today, by imparting knowledge and experiences of our catholic faith, so they are inspired to make a difference in our world. Living as disciples means that lives are formed in the radical way of love that Jesus taught. This requires a good deal of confidence and courage. Pope John Paul II once remarked: "the young hunger for a chance to participate in a worthy adventure." "My faith is so important to me - because without it I would be lost. I wouldn't know what I would be doing right or wrong. I wouldn't have God's voice with me at all times. He guides me!" - Michaela Your contribution to the Catholic Ministries Appeal helps young people encounter Christ in their life! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! BOOKS FOR YOUR SUMMER BEACH READING!
