Our Bishop's Annual Appeal has begun. As disciples of Jesus Christ, all of us share in the mission of the Catholic Diocese of Kalamazoo. Concretely we can accomplish this with a financial gift. Our parish goals this year are 100% participation and $116,685. With that in mind please consider increasing your last year’s gift to meet increased needs in our diocese. Remember, no gift is too small or too large, and every gift makes the work of Jesus Christ possible. To hear a video message from Bishop Bradley, click this box. To donate online, please click the box at the top right of the webpage.
