The Advancing the Mission stewardship campaign was conducted in each parish of the Diocese of Green Bay beginning in 2005. The campaign asked each person to consider stewardship as a way of life and their commitment to prayer, service, and sharing. The sharing portion of the campaign addressed these five key areas of need:
- Vibrant Parish Ministry -- Evaluating parish and community needs and prayerfully developing a plan to meet those needs.
- Leadership Development -- Providing essential training for lay leaders in various parish ministries.
- Evangelization -- Providing the tools and opportunities for parishioners to reach out and share the faith and invite others to join our Catholic community.
- Life-Long Catechesis -- Passing down our faith to our children and continuing to learn about our faith as adults.
- Priestly Retirement Care -- Starting an endowment to provide a safety net for our retired diocesan priests’ most critical needs, such as medical emergencies and skilled care.
More than 30,000 people contributed almost $40 million to Advancing the Mission, making it the most successful campaign in the history of the diocese.
