Dear Parishioners,
​Every year you make an impact on people’s lives by giving to the United Catholic Appeal. Your gift and sacrifice you make, by contributing to the UCA, allows the mission of the local Church to touch the lives of so many people in so many different ways. Your gift is more than just fulfilling our parish obligation to the diocese. It makes you a missionary of the Good News by supporting the saving work of Jesus Christ to continue to spread in the world.
Your gift:
  1. provides the chance for young people to attend diocesan camps, retreats, and faith experiences that are helping them grow in their Catholic faith
  2. helps people in need through the Social Apostolate office
  3. helps producing The Northern Cross to inform and inspire people throughout the diocese
  4. helps homebound people to participate in TV Mass
  5. provides men’s and women’s conferences and programs for engaged and married couples
  6. impacts hundreds of young people at the UMD Newman Center who are going to daily Mass, confession, adoration, bible studies, Sunday Masses, and more
  7. offers administrative support to our parish and preschool operation
It is the sum of all the generous gifts put together that makes the work of the Duluth Church alive. Unfortunately, it is not without challenges and disappointments that we are trying to build the Kingdom of God here on earth but at the end it is the Lord, who strengthens us on our journey, as we walk by faith and not by sight.
In prayer, let us consider our gift to the United Catholic Appeal, so it will become a gift coming from the bottom of our heart, filled with love for God and our neighbor. And I include myself in this challenge!
                Being grateful for all your financial support that you provide for the parish and diocese I invite all of you to participate in this year’s Appeal so that the Light of Christ can brighten the darkness of this world bringing hope to all.
Sincerely in Christ,

Fr. Andrew Knop, omi
