BISHOPS ANNUAL APPEAL
.Doing the little things in life in Christ’s name can
be a great way for us to take the steps necessary to
become a better disciple. St. Thèrése herself points
out that it’s not the size of our actions but the intent.
She once said, “you know well enough that Our
Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our
actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love
at which we do them.” Please give generously to
the Bishop’s Annual Appeal.
