2026 Bishop’s Appeal – Be the LIGHT

2026 Bishop’s Appeal – Be the LIGHT

What is the Bishop’s Appeal?

The Bishop’s Appeal is a stewardship opportunity for each of us to reach out to thousands of people in search of Jesus’ love. Each gift given supports the ministries of the Diocese of Green Bay which serve our parishes, Catholic schools, and communities. Your gift truly helps bring the heart and hands of Christ to our children, young adults, families and neighbors here in northeastern Wisconsin.

Why Give to the Bishop’s Appeal?

And the king will say to them in reply, “Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.” -Matthew 25:40

Your gift to the Bishop’s Appeal will help in countless ways.  Children and families are able to attend lively, interactive education programs learning the Word of God.  A young woman in an abusive relationship is able, through counseling with Catholic Charities, to stand on her own feet.  Married couples struggling with infertility are able to become parents through Adoption Services.  Your gift to the Bishop’s Appeal makes happy endings possible.

93% of every dollar raised goes to Diocesan ministries and services here in northeast Wisconsin.

January Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

January Explanation Station – St. John Nepomucene Adult Faith Formation

Here is one main reason people choose to be (and remain) Catholic:

Jesus founded a Church, not just a book.

Catholics believe Jesus established a visible Church, built on the apostles, with Peter as its head (Matthew 16:18). The Catholic Church traces its leadership and teaching authority directly back to them through apostolic succession.

This means the faith isn’t reinvented every generation—it’s handed on.

CIA-Faith Mission Operatives ministry is excited to announce: Fr. James Jugenheimer who will present “Finding the Fisherman’s Bones”on November 17th at Xavier Fine Arts

As we continue to celebrate the May election of Pope Leo XIV, the 266th successor of Saint Peter and the first American pope, CIA-Faith Mission Operatives would like to invite your parishioners to join us for one of the Catholic Church’s most intriguing “Pope stories”! 

On Monday, November 17th at 7 p.m. in the Xavier Fine Arts Theatre, Fr. James Jugenheimer of Appleton’s St. Pius X Parish, will present “FINDING THE FISHERMAN’S BONES – The fascinating story of the Vatican search for St. Peter’s tomb.”  

The location of Saint Peter’s tomb is well known now, but for centuries it remained hidden in an ancient Roman burial ground deep beneath the main altar of the Vatican basilica that bears his name. How, by whom, and when was his grave finally discovered? Why is he buried there? And how do we know it’s really him?

A teacher in his early years, Fr. Jim excels in his ability to research and bring to life the details of some of our faith’s many intriguing stories and mysteries, including this one!
