The 52nd Annual God's Share Appeal was conducted in all of the 99 parishes in the Diocese of Bismarck on the weekend of May 2 & 3, 2009.
Donations to the God's Share Appeal fund the day-to-day operations of the diocese which include the educational, pastoral and religious programs and services offered to all the parishes and parishioners of the Catholic Church in western North Dakota.
Bishop Zipfel has chosen "Called to Share; A Disciples Response" as the theme for this year's appeal. This theme reminds all Christians of their stewardship responsibilities of accepting God's gifts, tending to them, and returning a portion of them in thanksgiving.
Your generous support is greatly appreciated.
Watch the 2009 God's Share Appeal video message from Bishop Zipfel by clicking here to see the video.
Each Catholic household has received a letter from Bishop Zipfel which included a brochure that explains the programs and services funded by your contributions and a gift envelope. The gift envelope explains the convenient gifting options for you to chose from.
If you would like more information about the Annual God's Share Appeal, please contact the Office of Stewardship and Resource Development.
May God abundantly bless you and your family for your generous support.
