WORLD MISSION SUNDAY APPEAL

World Mission Sunday is a day for Catholics worldwide to recommit to the Church’s mission through prayer and sacrifice. A second collection taken this weekend at all our Circle of Faith Masses will help enrich more than 1,000 local churches in Asia, Africa, the Pacific Islands, and parts of Latin America and Eastern Europe. This covers more than half the globe. Gifts will be directed to the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. Please be generous.

Each year at tax time, we conscientiously “give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar.”

Does my stewardship indicate that I am as faithful about giving “to God what belongs to God?”

DID YOU KNOW?

The Green Bay Diocese through its Catholic Charities Office offers teen parent services when a pregnancy occurs. They provide help to frightened and confused, sometimes angry young adults in making decisions about their situation and the choice to be parents. It’s just one of the ways that your gifts to the Bishop’s Appeal help people in northeastern Wisconsin. Thank you for your support.

REPORTING SEXUAL ABUSE

If you know of an incident of sexual abuse of a person who is now under the age of 18 by a priest, deacon, employee or volunteer, please immediately call the civil authorities and then the diocese. If the person was abused as a minor but is now an adult, please call Jayne Stefanic, Diocesan Assistance Coordinator, at 920-272-8174, or toll free at 1-877-270-8184.

We always encourage you to report the incident to civil authorities.
