Finding Rest

In a busy, anxious, and uncertain world, our Church is where we come to be strengthened, comforted, and renewed. Because our Church is firmly rooted in Christ, every person is welcomed, valued, and supported, no matter their age, story, or circumstance. It is a sanctuary.

The 2026 Archdiocesan Annual Appeal, Finding Rest, invites you to contemplate, participate, and share the work of our Church community with others so that they too can come to know the peace of Christ.

Starting in October and leading up to the Archdiocesan Feast Day on December 8th, we will be sharing stories and content that express how the Church has been a place of healing, support, and refuge in our lives. We want to highlight those moments, people and ministries that have touched your life in a meaningful way.

Sign up here or follow us on Facebook to share your own experiences, receive updates and get an invitation to our virtual November 30th Advent Retreat, Grace in an Instant.

Your financial gifts to the Archdiocesan Appeal support the Church’s mission by revitalizing ministries and pastoral care, nurturing vocations and faith formation for all ages, and extending Christ’s love to the most vulnerable through outreach projects. In gratitude for your support, 20% of every gift is returned directly to your local parish, strengthening both your local faith community and the Archdiocese as a whole.

Supporting the Pastoral Work of the Archdiocese: Changes Coming for 2025!

This year marks an important milestone for our universal church. In this Jubilee Year, we are called to be “Pilgrims of Hope”, to act with clarity, purpose, and love. In following this call to action, we have consolidated our Archdiocesan annual appeals into one to focus and better steward our shared resources. This single appeal, coming this fall, will directly support our Emergency Shelter Project, Marriage Tribunal Ministry, Hospital & University Chaplaincy, Adult & Youth Faith Formation, Care for our Retired Priests, and all the ministries of the Archdiocese found in our 2024 Impact Report. Parishes will also receive 20% of all donations to this appeal contributed by their parishioners to use in their faith communities.
