Continued Appeal assistance to the Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministries will enable each young person of our diocese to find joy and meaning in living life as a Catholic, while supporting those who volunteer as youth ministers.

Catechist Development

Audio-visual and written aids to assist parish and school religious educators, and an annual conference for our parish religious educators are just some of the benefits your Appeal provides through support of the Diocesan Office of Catechetics and Worship. Hundreds of Catholics working in parish-based religious education will also continue to receive direct visitation, formation, and education from this Church office.

Located upstairs in your new Catholic Center, the Slattery Library is this region's only complete Catholic library, featuring the very best in research material and an excellent Catholic periodical collection. Appeal donations assist in the maintenance of this wonderful gift of the Catholic Church Extension Society. A full-time librarian is available at the Slattery Library to assist you with your needs.
