You may use a Catholic Echo logo from https://doy.org/our-brand/press-kit/ to accompany the announcement or find it in the attachment folder at https://bit.ly/jan2026sharedoy Publish in the bulletin any time in December and the weekends of January 3/4 & 10/11.
NOTE TO PARISHES: The Diocese of Youngstown will include an offering envelope for “The Catholic Echo.” This will replace the January envelope for “Communications.” The offerings made via this envelope, like the former “Catholic Exponent” envelope, are to remain in the parish to assist the parish in meeting the prescribed subsidy for providing the Echo to parishioners in each parish. Aware that some parishes have already included such an envelope on their own accord, no funds generated by these envelopes should be forwarded to the Diocese. Thank you.
