Dear Parishioner,
The Catholic Services Appeal supports the mission and work of the Catholic Church in southeast Michigan — that much is clear.
But how? Where does the money go? What ministries benefit?
On Sept. 24, Catholics in the Archdiocese of Detroit are invited to find out during the
first-ever “Giving Day,” a celebration of the work, ministries and mission that make Detroit’s Church a “band of joyful, missionary disciples,” as Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron’s pastoral letter,
Unleash the Gospel, says.
“Giving Day is an exciting new way to learn about and celebrate some of the incredible work done by key ministries in the Archdiocese of Detroit,” Jim Thomas, director of mission advancement for the archdiocese, told Detroit Catholic. “We’ve never done this before.”
Viewers are invited to tune in to a livestream broadcast on Thursday, Sept. 24, starting at 6:30 p.m., where they’ll learn about the impact of seven key ministries: vocations, Catholic schools, Christian service, Black Catholic ministries, Hispanic ministries, youth and family, and communications.

The first-ever CSA Giving Day will take place on Thursday, September 24 beginning at 6:30 p.m. Streamed on
