Thank you for your continued support and prayers for 2020 Catholic Family Sharing Appeal, “One Faith. One Family.” Because of the generosity of the faithful, we are able to make an impact in the lives of thousands of our diocesan brothers and sisters. The enthusiastic response of so many is a wonderful testament to how we reach out to others and share our God-given gifts.
As of November 25, we have processed 13,512 pledge cards totaling $4,252,000. Nearly half of the parishes have raised over and above the amount shared with the diocese. In total, an additional $409,468 will stay in the respective parish and be used where the need is greatest.
Thank you again for all of your continued support of Catholic Family Sharing Appeal. May God bless you and those you love during this Advent Season.

Please send in any new pledge cards to the Catholic Family Sharing Appeal office. Even if your parish has paid off the 2020 share, pledge cards need to be submitted by December 31 to ensure we have accurate information to acknowledge each individual’s gift.
With the move of Melinda North to the Office of the Bishop, please know we have transitioned those to support you in the Office of Catholic Family Sharing Appeal, and we are here to help you in any way we can to ensure the success of your local appeal. If you should have any questions, please contact Mike Bannwarth, mbannwar@sfcatholic.org, 988-3759 or Paula Ryan, pryan@ccfesd.org, 988-3788.
