DAA

Mailings for the Diocesan Annual Appeal will be sent out beginning September 6th. Please help the parish by sending in your pledge card as soon as possible. Remember that because we support a K-12 Catholic school, 74% of funds toward our goal and 100% of funds over our goal are returned directly to the parish. This is a great opportunity for us to express our solidarity with the rest of our Catholic brothers and sisters throughout the Sioux City Diocese. Thanks for your help!

Globe Subscriptions
It is time once again to renew your subscriptions to The Globe, our diocesan newspaper. This is an important means to keep informed about what is happening in our diocese and in the Catholic Church throughout the world. Please help out the parish by sending in your subscription payment to the diocese now!
