The 2022 (CSA) Catholic Services Appeal campaign has officially begun, you will be receiving information and a response card in your mailboxes. CSA is a diocesan-wide campaign that supports the mission of the church locally, regionally, and globally. We Catholics are so blessed to be part of the Universal Church, finding our unity in Jesus Christ. The work of the Church requires careful stewardship. It requires tending and care, just like other important parts of our lives We spend time keeping our bodies nourished, our houses updated, and building relationships with our friends and family.

Each year, the CSA reaches across parish boundaries so we can tend to the needs of our parishes, parishioners, and the people of northern lower Michigan and beyond. The Diocese of Gaylord exists to further God’s work to connect, uplift, and strengthen parishes, parishioners, and communities in their relationship with Jesus Christ.

Here at Immaculate the target this year is $157,780.00. This figure speaks volumes; that we are a growing and vibrant parish and that all our ministries and outreach programs are flourishing. Immaculate Conception has always risen to the occasion and made its target! Rick Becktold and the CSA team will be in the Centennial Hall after all Masses May 14 & 15 and May 21 & 22 to answer any questions.

God Bless,

Fr. Anthony Citro
