Social Concerns

Seeking to support parish commitment to social ministry while defending human life and dignity.

Hurricane Helene has brought devastation and life-threatening conditions to North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Whole communities are flooded and millions are without power. Catholic Charities agencies are putting disaster response plans into action, and are mobilizing to assist with food, water and shelter, as well as long-term assistance. If you’re able, please make a gift today in support of families and individuals whose lives have been upended by Hurricane Helene. 100% of donations go to helping those affected by this disaster.

Help the Suffering People of Ukraine

Christian love transcends politics

An Appeal for Prayers and Financial Support

The people of Ukraine continue to suffer horrific missile and drone attacks from Russian forces, often aimed at population centers, critical infrastructure, and power stations (with the intent of causing massive blackouts). Please consider donating to Valentyna Pavsyukova’s extraordinarily effective mission, Chalice of Mercy, to help pay for continued shipments of vital clothing, medical supplies, and much more. With her dedicated network in the U.S. and Ukraine, Valentyna is able to get these supplies (including millions of dollars’ worth of donated medical equipment) from Wisconsin to the people in the war zone in the space of just ten days. This is all done at a discounted rate through her shipping partners, but it must be done by air, so the costs are still considerable. This mission is rooted in Jesus Christ and sanctified by much prayer and many Holy Masses. Your prayers and donations are deeply appreciated!
