It is time for the launch of the 2022 Bishop’s Annual Appeal. Next week is the in-pew appeal where I will be directly asking you to support the Bishop’s Annual Appeal, an annual drive for the entire Catholic community to help us sustain our statewide ministries like Catholic schools, vocations, religious education programs and emergency aid to households in financial crisis. I ask you to please come to Mass next weekend with an open heart. I thank you for your generosity in the past and hope for your generosity in the future. Yours in Christ, Bishop Christopher J. Coyne
