Anual Catholic Appeal Report:
We are about to wrap up the 2024 Annual Catholic Appeal. The good news is we have received pledges/gifts from more 100 households! But it means there are still 194 households that have not yet responded. And it’s not too late for you to give! No gift is too small. If you’re unsure what to give, please consider a gift of $1 a day or $365 or more. Go online to
www.archseattle.org/GiveACA or use the pew envelope at Mass.
