The Weekend of February 15/16 was the start of the 2014 Annual Catholic Appeal (formerly the Bishop's Annual Appeal) with a short (4 minutes) video at all of the Masses. Information pamphlets and pledge cards were in the pews to make it easy to indicate support for this annual campaign.

The goal for 2014 for St Catherine's Parish is $44,000, the same amount as the 2013 Bishop's Annual Appeal. As in past years, if St Catherine's meets this 2014 goal, we will receive a 15% rebate of our goal. In addition, for any donations above our goal, we will receive 50% of these funds.

New this year is the possibility of gaining an additional 5% return by increasing the participation rate from our parish by 10%. Please help us increase participation in this annual appeal by making a pledge. Even small pledges will be most welcome as it is the number of pledges/donations that count towards this increased rate of participation. The amount of the pledge is entirely up to you. Please be as generous as your means allow.

God Bless.
