Sisters of Holy Cross

WAYS TO HELP

It is a pleasure for our Development Office Staff to send greetings to our faithful benefactors who support our retirement and ministry needs. You truly are partners in mission as you share the resources God has given you. Your intentions are included in our every prayer and on the 26th of each month a Mass is offered for you and your families

DEVELOPMENT OFFICE MISSION

The Mission of the Development Office of the Sisters of Holy Cross in the U.S. Region is established to provide a vehicle by which the friends and relatives of the Sisters can become actively engaged in the mission of the Congregation through their interest and monetary support. Together, we strive to create opportunities to liberate through justice and love.

Your generous contributions help us to:

Subsidize the Sisters' ministries to the economically disadvantaged;
Care for our elderly and infirm sisters;
Support vocation, formation, and ongoing educational programs;
Contribute toward our operational expenses;
Respond to various needs as they arise

Our Goal for 2009

Time marches on and though our Congregation is smaller in number, our vitality and our commitment to the mission remain strong. We carry many of the same concerns:

Meet the normal demands of living expenses for the sick and elderly
Maintain our buildings and provide adequate housing for our sisters in active ministry
Maintain our facilities equipment in good working condition or, when necessary, replace outdated equipment
Provide living expenses for sisters who serve in non or under-funded ministries and who are involved in direct service to the poor
Support actions and initiatives vital to maintaining the integrity of our mission.

As we look to the coming year, we forsee that it will be necessary to add $200,000 to our net income. Given the major slump in our economy, this will be no small feat! In asking for your help, we also recognize the importance of remaining in solidarity with you by making our own financial sacrifices in order to better serve our mission on behalf of God's people.

We are concerned for those among you who are presently without employment or are presently confronted with pressing financial challenges. May our gracious God bless you abundantly for your great generosity towards the Sisters of Holy Cross.
