The Annual Catholic Appeal offers financial support to over 40 Catholic schools, charities, and organizations. Last year they raised $14 million with approximately 91 cents of every dollar raised going back into the community in the form of direct services.

We ask you to give whatever you can to aid these important causes! Every dollar helps. Those who are in need of God’s love are not strangers. They are family. Let us come together as one Church to lift up any member of our family who seeks God’s grace and mercy.

Our parish, Ascension, is known for being the parish leader in generosity to the ACA. Thank you to all for your continued support! 

2025 Annual Catholic Appeal - Messengers of Hope

The Lord reassures us, “For the needy will never be forgotten, nor will the hope of the afflicted ever fade” (Ps 9:19). Christ, who by His passion, death, and resurrection, has redeemed the world, remains with us always and stands with us in life’s darkness. He is our hope and our strength. He calls us to be one in Him and sustain each other in times of need, becoming Messengers of Hope.

Approximately 91 cents of every dollar raised goes back into the community in the form of direct services.
