Togetherness—it is what the 2010 Diocesan Annual Appeal is all about.

As a caring community of Catholics, we need each other, rely on each other, and willingly make the choice to help one another. We do this because it is who we are, and it is what we do.

When our Catholic community works together toward a positive goal, our accomplishments are great indeed. But without your participation, without you in our community, we are less. Our work is less. The difference we make is not as great, and our reach is not as far.

It will take your help to make this year’s Diocesan Appeal a successful one.

This brochure will explain the allocation of the funds raised by the 2010 Appeal and demonstrate the impact it will have. As you consider those whom the Appeal serves, consider how your support can truly make a lasting difference.

The good we do only gets stronger when a caring community works together.
