Catholic Ministries Appeal (CMA)
2023 Theme: Building Christ’s Church–Fulfilling Christ’s Mission
St. Paul reminds us in Ephesians that we are to “live the truth in love and grow in every way into Him who is the head, Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament with the proper functioning of each part, brings about the body’s growth and builds itself up in love.”
-Ephesians 4: 15-16
The theme, Building Christ’s Church–Fulfilling Christ’s Mission, emphasizes the importance of using our time, talent, and treasure for the benefit of our wider church community. As individual members of the Body of Christ, we all possess different gifts and talents for furthering the ministry of Christ and His Church. God’s generous gifts should be returned to Him with increase by sharing the peace and joy of Christ with all those we encounter.
The Appeal-funded ministries provide ample opportunities for you and others in Building Christ’s Church–Fulfilling Christ’s Mission. Whether it be through social outreach programs that help families in crisis, Catholic school education, training and support for catechists involved in parish religious education programs, youth ministry, college campus ministry, lifelong faith formation for all ages, retreats and pilgrimages, and so much more, you make it possible through your sacrificial gift.
