Diocesan-wide Planned Giving Campaign

We have produced a series of three brief videos from Bishop Michael encouraging us to consider how we can support or parish with financial giving.  It is never easy to ask for money but it is a reality of keeping our parishes alive and serving our people.  In these brief video messages Bishop Michael explains the money needed to support our priests and parish staff and the financial situation of the diocese.  Thank you for taking the time to watch these videos and to consider what you may be able to give.
