Through Bishop’s Appeal We Rise Again

God has a way of using the darkest hours to do the most amazing things. No matter what pain stirs in the world around us, with the love of Jesus in our hearts, We Rise Again.

As followers of Jesus, we share His love for every person.  When you give to the Bishop’s Appeal you support the mission and ministries of the Diocese of Green Bay.

These ministries help young people learn about Jesus in our parishes and Catholic schools.  Those in need of counseling are helped at Catholic Charities.  The TV Mass  connects people to the Gospel message.

Please prayerfully consider a gift to the Bishop’s Appeal.  Learn more about how your gift makes a difference.  Thank you for your support of the Bishop’s Appeal.

Impacting Lives for More Than 20 Years

Since its founding in 1997, the Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of Green Bay has distributed more than $50,000,000 to support Church ministries and services for the spiritual, educational and social needs of God’s people.

We can help you:

  • Make a gift that immediately makes a difference
  • Make a gift that both gives you a life income and helps others
  • Make a gift that will help others later through deferred giving
  • Make a gift to a new or existing fund that
    benefits a parish or ministry

Whether you are interested in assisting a ministry of the Church, educating our seminarians, remembering the Church in your will, helping your parish or the Church in many other ways bring Christ to thousands of people throughout Northeastern Wisconsin, the Catholic Foundation can assist you.

Each gift helps. Thank you on behalf of everyone you are assisting.
