The fund helps us support the following:
SPIRITUAL FORMATION – the church seeks to satisfy the thirst of her members to know and understand the catholic faith.
PRIEST AND SEMINARIANS – our priests are an integral part of our catholic life, dedicated to a life of service to the people of god.
CULTURAL MINISTRIES – the gospel is proclaimed, celebrated and lived by many people of many ethnic and cultural backgrounds in the archdiocese.
FUNDING FOR THE POOR – the needs of the poor and hungry among us represent an opportunity for the archdiocese of Miami to minister as Christ instructed.
Supporting ABCD In solidarity with the world in need
The Church is called to be an “advocate of justice and of the poor” in the face of intolerable social and economic inequalities, which “cry to heaven”.
Your gift to the ABCD helps the Church here in South Florida to walk with the poor as their friend.
