Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal 2014 - Most past contributors to the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal will receive a mailing from Archbishop Sample within the next few days. At all Masses next weekend, additional information will be provided in the bulletin insert. The appeal provides funds to support essential parish-based ministries that would find it

difficult, if not impossible, to operate solely on parish funds. Appeal funds are used to help fund Archdiocesan offices and agencies that assist the parishes and their people. In

addition, part of the funds are used to assist retired archdiocesan priests. The theme of the 2014 Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal is “Teach, Bless, Serve”. As you

consider the amount you can pledge to help these ministries, please reflect on the following:

Contributing to the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal is one concrete way to “Teach, Bless, Serve”. Take a moment to honestly examine all the God-given blessings in your life and

then ask not yourself, but ask God: “What is just?’ By our baptism and our confirmation in the Catholic church, each of us is called to serve as a good shepherd. We’re called not

only to follow Christ but to be Christ. Please pray for the Lord’s guidance as you consider the above reflections, and please

give generously according to the blessings God has given you. More information is available Online for download at www.archdpdx.org/appeal/.
