Diocesan Services Appeal Update
We’re almost there! We have reached more than 85% of our DSA goal of $88,896. Some of you mentioned you still need to send in your contribution. Please do so and thank to those who have. If we reach our goal, about one third will come back to us to support our Latino Ministry and Campus Ministry efforts. Let’s reach our goal. Thank you for your generosity.
Thank you for your gifts to the Diocesan Services Appeal!
If you have not yet made a gift or a pledge, I invite you to do so today. Gift envelopes are available at both church entrances or the parish office. Or you may submit your gift online at www.dioceseoflansing.org/dsa.
