"Together at the Table"

Many families in our parish have already received the Annual Catholic Appeal request mailing from Cardinal Cupich. The Annual Catholic Appeal is an invitation for every Catholic family to respond with a generous heart. Your gift will provide inspiration, education, and services to the less fortunate in our Archdiocese and throughout the world. The ACA offers an opportunity to answer Jesus' call to embrace our own responsibility to work with God's plan in our lives. In addition to providing funds for ministries and services throughout the Archdiocese, the Appeal also supports services that are of great help to ministries here in our Parish and School of St. John the Evangelist.

ACA gifts: one-time gifts, pledges, sustaining recurring gifts, as well as gifts made through stock. Donor Advised Funds and IRA distributions - can be made by cash, check or credit card through the following methods:

• Reply form received in the Cardinal's mailing in January or bring it to the parish office or church and drop it in the collection basket
• In-pew process of collecting your pledges - envelopes will be available in the church on the weekend of February 10/11 and February 17/18
• Online at annualcatholicappeal.com
• Take a picture of the QR code on the ACA brochure to access the online giving form

Remember to indicate your ":Parish Designation" by checking - Please credit my gift to St. John the Evangelist.

As we contemplate God's many gifts to us, we should also reflect on our gratitude for these gifts. Your financial support for the work of our Parish, our Archdiocese, and the Church throughout the world is, in fact, one way to express this gratitude. We humbly ask you to please give generously to the 2024 Annual Catholic Appeal.

Thanks you for your outstanding generosity and love of our Archdiocese and Parish.
