From pledges and donations processed by April 13, 2026, we are over 67% of our goal. We are still receiving and processing mail submissions so the total percent given to date is even higher! I strongly encourage you to offer brief reminders each weekend, to publish your results in the bulletin, along with any other materials that come from the Appeal Office, and to especially consider taking advantage of the large crowds on Palm Sunday of our Lord’s Passion and Easter Sunday to mention the Appeal, simply thanking those who have made a gift and directing all others to the in pew materials or the DOY website. Congratulations to the following parishes that have met over 100% of their Appeal goals:

St. Agatha Mission, West Point Queen of Heaven Parish, McDonald & Mineral Ridge St Michael Parish, Canfield St Mary/St Joseph, Newton Falls University Parish Newman Center, Kent St. Ann Parish, Sebring Immaculate Conception Parish, Ravenna St Joan of Arc Parish, Streetsboro St Patrick Parish, Kent

The following parishes are close with 85%+ of their Appeal goals:

St Ambrose Parish, Garrettsville Holy Spirit Parish, Uniontown Regina Coeli Parish, Alliance St Columba C athedral Parish, Youngstown

Again, thank you for all you are doing to make the 2026 Appeal another successful year. God bless you! Very Rev. John-Michael Lavelle   –
