Annual Bishop's Appeal The Annual Bishop’s Appeal is a yearly fundraising campaign that supports ministries and programs throughout the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend. The diocesan-wide goal for the 2025 Annual Bishop’s Appeal is $5,325,465 Our 2025 Goal is $20,493 Donate Today Video (English) More information (English) More information (Spanish) Frequently asked questions Why do we have an Annual Bishop’s Appeal? Before the Annual Bishop’s Appeal, the ministries and work of the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend was financed, in part, by a 13 percent tax on all parish income (capital campaigns, tuition–everything). In 1987 the first Bishop’s Appeal was initiated and resulted in the reduction of parish tax to six percent on the parish offertory only. This has lifted the burden of the tax from parishes while inviting you to prayerfully consider your investment directly into the ministries and work of our diocese.

Anointing of the Sick If you or a loved one is in need of the Sacrament of the Sick, please let your caregiver/hospital/nursing home/hospice staff know you are Catholic. You do not need to wait until death to celebrate the Sacrament of the Sick. Please call the Parish Office at 260-463-3472 to let our priests know. Once death has occurred, the best place to start is to contact the funeral home. The staff there will guide you in preparing for a Catholic service along with contacting our Parish.

Offertory Program Todo lo que hacemos aquí en la Iglesia San Jose se hace por el amor a Dios. Esto puede parecer obvio, pero ¿refl exionamos sobre eso lo sufi ciente? Hay mucho que hacer para mantener una parroquia en funcionamiento: administrar los sacramentos; proporcionar ministerios y programas; atendiendo a los necesitados, a los enfermos y al sufrimiento; cuidando el edifi cio y la propiedad. A veces podemos caer víctima de olvidar por qué estamos aquí. Podemos olvidar que somos una familia de creyentes, unidos en el amor de Dios, que estamos trabajando y esforzándonos por ser discípulos fi eles de Jesucristo. ¡Pero esto es lo que somos! Y es el amor de Dios el que nos une, sabiendo que Su Hijo nos mandó que “se amen unos a otros como yo los he amado” (Jn 15: 12, Biblia Latinoamericana). Cuando mantenemos esa misión a la vanguardia de nuestros pensamientos, palabras y acciones, todo cae en su lugar. Este es el corazón de lo que hacemos aquí en la Iglesia San Jose, y es una gran bendición poder compartir esta misión con ustedes. Es unido en el amor de Dios que ofrecemos nuestro tiempo, talento y tesoro para edifi car el reino de Dios. Lo hacemos por: • Orar por otros y participar en la vida sacramental de la Iglesia. • Servirse unos a otros, especialmente a los más vulnerables. • Cuidar a los enfermos y a los que sufren. • Crecer más profundamente en la vida de fe. • Y difundir las buenas nuevas de Jesucristo a todos. Para vivir nuestra misión, necesitamos que todos los feligreses de San José se unan. Todo lo que tenemos es un regalo de Dios, así que debemos devolverle a Él generosamente. Esto es amor en acción. Pedimos que los feligreses de San Jose consideren con espíritu de oración hacer un regalo fi nanciero a nuestra parroquia para ayudarnos a avanzar en esta misión más crítica. Como familia unida en el amor de Dios, podemos hacer mucho más juntos que separados. Ningún regalo es demasiado pequeño, y estoy muy agradecido de antemano por su generosidad. Mientras trabajamos juntos para llevar concretamente el Amor de Dios a un mundo muy necesitado de él, oro que permanezcan en el Amor de Dios, y que su alegría sea completa. Por favor, oren por mí también. En Cristo, P.
