A letter from Archbishop Wenski

Dear parishioners,

Our faith is not confined to a physical building: the influence of the Church does not stop at its front door.

Together, We Are the Church.

A universal body of believers, delivering God’s message of hope and love to everyone, everywhere.

Your generosity to the Archbishop’s Charity and Development Drive, ABCD, serves the Church so that the Church can serve you.

We Are the Church. Together we can continue the work of Christ, no matter what challenges come our way.

Please join me in making a donation to the ABCD today. Every gift makes a difference.

Thank you and God bless you.
