The Annual Catholic Appeal (ACA) funds the yearly needs of our diocese. It supports the work of our parishes and, wherever possible, expands the mission of the Church. This year’s Annual Catholic Appeal, Encountering Love, touches on the very essence of our Faith, our mission as disciples, and all that the Lord gives us. We encounter Christ’s Love in the gift of the Holy Mass, the Sacraments, and the people who are near and dear to our lives. The world encounters His love when we, through Grace, are kind, forthright, and committed to Christ in all that we do.

Jesus is alive. He is alive in each one of us, in our parishes, and in His Church. Bishop Vetter invites you to help to continue the good work of the Diocese of Helena by considering a gift to the Annual Catholic Appeal for this year. Together, we can all continue to show that Jesus is Alive.

The theme of this year's appeal is Come Let Us Worship, an invitation to the faithful of the Diocese of Helena to participate fully in both the liturgy and the mission of Jesus Christ, for our discipleship is made possible only through our partaking in the Lord's Supper.
