Partners in Charity… Envision Faith in Action! What an inspiration it is for all of us to know that when we support the Annual Partners in Charity Appeal we generate joy in the lives of those served by our many agencies and ministries. And you, in turn, share in the joy of bringing hope into the lives of those we serve. Text giving is the easiest and most secure way to give. If you know how to send a text message, you can make a gift to Partners in Charity in seconds on your phone. Our parish, St. Bernadette, will receive credit! Text the word donate to 84576. You can also make your gift online at partners-charity.net/donate. Thank you for your continued support!
The weekend of April 17 & 18 is In Pew Commitment Weekend for the 2021 Partners in Charity Appeal. Once a year, we commit ourselves to this ongoing work by supporting this life giving appeal. We reflect on God’s great generosity, and respond with generous giving of our own. With your support, faith in action is visible every day in the compassionate outreach of Catholic Charities, to the least among us; in the prayerful witness of our retired priests, and the joy of new priestly vocations; to the many diocesan ministries and programs that heal, teach and care for others. Watch the Appeal Video at home this week at www.partners-charity.net. Please come to Mass that weekend prepared to make a commitment to the appeal. Thank you!
Fr. Ron is recording Sunday Mass at St. Bernadette Parish, which is available on our YouTube channel and on the home page of the St. Bernadette website every Sunday. This will continue even as the church reopens, for the benefit of those unable to attend Mass in person.
