BISHOP'S ANNUAL APPEAL 2020
I am so inspired at how our people stepped up to take care of each other and their parishes during the epidemic, and how the priests reinvented ministry for our time. I know many people have lost their income, or had their lives disrupted in other ways. This year, I ask for financial assistance in the work of the Eparchy only if you can afford it. If you are unable to assist financially this year, I completely understand. You need to care for yourself, your own family, and your own parish first. Please pray for our Eparchy in any case. As you can see all around the country, people need the light of Jesus Christ more than ever before. Please pray as never before for God’s mercy and blessings in our country. I pray every morning to the Mother of God for everyone of you. May the Holy Virgin protect you under mantle this year.
--Bishop Kurt--
