The message of The Divine Mercy is simple. It is that God loves us – all of us. And, he wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His mercy, and let it flow through us to others. Thus, all will come to share His joy. The Divine Mercy message is one we can call to mind simply by remembering ABC: A - Ask for His Mercy. B - Be merciful. C - Completely trust in Jesus.Read More

Diocesan Support Appeal
“WE ARE HIS HANDS” is the theme of the 2019 Diocesan Support Appeal which kicks off the weekend of February 9th and 10th. You will be receiving correspondence from Bishop Jugis asking for your generous support of the DSA. A short video will be shown during the Masses on the kick off weekend which will present an overview of how the funds given to the DSA impact our Diocese. Bishop Jugis asks each of us to prayerfully consider a gift to the DSA as a way of serving Christ through service to thousands of Catholics in Western North Carolina.
The DSA Assessment for 2019 was $21,063.
The shortfall was paid from operating funds.
Thank you to all who contributed.

compassion and generosity. May our words and actions be
a response to Your great love, in the name of Jesus the Lord. Amen.Pledges made to the 2020 Diocesan Support Appeal must be completed by the end of the year. Contributions made after December 31, 2020 will be credited to the 2021 appeal.
