2024 Bishop’s Appeal – Living the Eucharist & Sharing the Gifts

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. Care ministers are trained to go out and share the Gospel with the homebound and sick. 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. Families seeking to adopt are connected with newborn babies. 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.

2023 Raising Vocations Collection

Why is the Diocese starting the Raising Vocations Collection?

The Diocese of Green Bay has been blessed by the prayers and generosity of thousands of people. With the help of a beautiful, anonymous donation to the one by One campaign, our seminarians’ tuition, room and board, and the Kairos formation year expenses will be covered for five years.

This wonderful gift will allow our Diocese to shift the focus to supporting the efforts of helping more young men and women answer God’s call to a holy vocation. After months of prayerful discernment and having consulted with the Catholic Foundation team, Vocations Director, Rev. Mark C. Mleziva and Bishop David Ricken have decided that every parish in the Diocese will undertake a new campaign called the Raising Vocations Collection. This shift will help us further our Diocesan goal of calling forth and forming 30 men in seminary formation by 2025. These holy men have been formed by ministries that encourage our young people to explore their vocation.

How does your gift to the Raising Vocations Collection support Vocations?

This important collection supports ministries that help young men and women answer God’s call to a holy vocation. Some ministries that will benefit from the Raising Vocations Collection are campus ministry at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and campus ministry at our Catholic High School campuses. They will provide support to these young men and women through retreats, spiritual direction and being part of a Catholic community when they are away from home and journeying with their peers.

Vocations Events and other information may be found at the Diocesan website at: www.gbvocations.org.
