Annual Catholic Appeal Foundation

Our humble faith reminds us to take the opportunity, as the moments of our lives unfold, to appreciate all the graces and blessings God places before us and open our eyes to the wonders of His presence in the Holy Eucharist.  Jesus invites us to return to the source of our faith in the celebration of the Eucharist.  Doing so provides us with the determination to face whatever comes our way with courage and hope – with Jesus Christ as our focus. With Him as our foundation, our 2024 Annual Catholic Appeal theme is: “Come to Christ, One and All.”   

The Archdiocese of Santa Fe and its parishes emulate this God-inspired message, by encouraging us to live a Eucharistic life and to continue to grow in the virtues of faith, hope, and charity. Together, these attributes help nourish community building, hospitality, and spirituality. With your steadfast resilience and generosity, we are able to develop creative ways to keep ourselves connected to our Sacred Traditions and Church Mission by cultivating new opportunities to grow our various ministries of Evangelization, Social Justice, Family Life, Faith Formation, Vocations, Pastoral Outreach, and many others. Your contributions have further enabled our ability to deliver on cultural ministries, tuition assistance for our students and professional development of faculty in our Catholic Schools, as well as fine-tuning our communications and social media capabilities.  Finally, we remain focused on our endeavors to plan for the future – guided by the Holy Spirit, and by the example of our Patron, St. Francis of Assisi.  Just as Our Lord told Francis to “Rebuild My Church” so are we called to do the same. 

Through your generous contributions to the Annual Catholic Appeal, we are called to a renewed faith in action, to build upon what generations before us have built, and to recognize what our generation is responsible for sustaining.

By supporting the Annual Catholic Appeal, you will be delivering promise to our Archdiocesan ministries and parish communities, while living our mission in the world.  Please prayerfully consider supporting this inspiring work of the Lord.  Your gift to the Annual Catholic Appeal is deeply appreciated. May our Lord fill hearts with joy and enthusiasm. Thank you for sharing faith in Jesus Christ and His Church!

Kindly,
