Our goal for the 2022 Annual Appeal was $380,000, and we were able to meet and surpass this goal because of your abounding generosity! We raised more than $460,000 with over 580 donors, allowing us to continue our Good Works and meet the needs of our members and community.

These tremendous gifts show your faith and dedication to our Franciscan mission. Despite the challenging issues of inflation, as well as ongoing concerns from the pandemic, our community raised more funds this year than the last. Monies raised allow the Franciscan Renewal Center to carry forward the work of St. Francis that began over 800 years ago - to “rebuild my church.” The need to rebuild, heal, transform, and renew continues today, and we are GRATEFUL for your support that allows our many ministries and programs to fulfill this work.

Ministries and programs include:

• Daily and Sunday Mass at Our Lady of the Angels Church

• Meetings and conferences for religious and nonprofit groups

• Individual therapy and counseling

• Support groups

• Education, retreats, and events

• Family Faith Formation

• Faith in Action - volunteer ministries in service of the poor and vulnerable

Your gifts of time, talent, and treasure are truly valued and benefit all we serve on our sacred grounds and out in our community. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to fulfill our 800-year mission and our vision for the future.
