culture - a true plague, infecting nearly every
corner of our society. Its disastrous effects are
seen in sexual addiction, ruined marriages, and
shattered lives. Jeff Cavins notes that many men

WHY CONDUCT THE JOY OF THE GOSPEL
CAPITAL CAMPAIGN IN THE DIOCESE? There
exist urgent financial needs with regard to Catholic
education, funding the formation of our seminarians
and supporting our priests in retirement. The
diocese recognized an opportunity to address these
key areas at once while providing support for new
evangelization initiatives and an outlet for parishes
to raise funds for local needs. Prior experience has
shown us that more can be accomplished by
running one comprehensive campaign than many
mini-campaigns over a number of years.
In an effort to stay ahead of impending financial
challenges, the diocese recognized the need to
make immediate changes in the way certain
ministries are funded. A campaign like Joy of the
Gospel provides a platform of support for that
transition. Much as they were nearly 15 years ago
in the last diocesan-wide fundraising effort –
Crossing the Threshold – resources committed to
Joy of the Gospel will help us prepare for and stay
ahead of future challenges.
As the campaign seeks to enhance the life of every
Catholic in the diocese, it is indeed right that we all
be asked to consider our support of the project. In
fact, a number of families at our parish have
already made their commitments to the Joy of the
Gospel and I wish to thank them for their support.
Still others have received calls from fellow
parishioners asking for a few minutes to visit
regarding the campaign. I thank you in advance for
accepting them into you home for a visit to discuss
the campaign in further detail.
Volunteers are: Kathi and Dennis Wells, Linda and
Stephen Schmit, John and Patty Zarybnicky, Don
Ferneding, Tim Graff, Correne and Barry Adams
