Join Other Parishioners in Providing the Resources Necessary to Spread Jesus Christ’s Gospel Message during the 2026 Bishop’s Lenten Appeal (BLA)

The podcast below features Fr. Peter Clem’s homily from Feb. 1, 2026, during which he beautifully reflects on the importance of giving to the Bishop’s Lenten Appeal:

The 2026 Bishop’s Lenten Appeal (BLA) strengthens the bonds of faith that join us together as a Catholic family and provides the resources to assure the continued presence of Jesus Christ’s Gospel message and ministry across our diocese. Whether promoting vocations, educating our future priests, providing lay ministry formation, teaching, evangelizing, providing outreach to youth, young adults and those in need, the programs and ministries of the BLA touch every parish and parishioner in our diocese. You make a gift by clicking here.

A BLA mailing was recently sent to parishioners. The theme this year is “In Christ We Are One.” After reflecting upon the blessings God has given you, please prayerfully consider a pledge. See below to learn more.
