CPC 2022-23 Donations
First, we would like to thank all those who have turned in pledge cards or made you pledge online to our Called to be Faithful Stewards, CPC campaign. We appreciate your generosity.
At this time, we are at 42% of our goal. Good Shepherd’s CPC goal is $279,037. We are so thankful for the generosity of many, but still need many of you to respond to our plea. Parishioner’s gifts to this annual appeal provide funding to the pastoral and ministerial works of he diocese in every parish in southwestern Indiana.
Contributing to this campaign is one way in which we share the abundance of God’s gifts to us. The gifts made to this appeal are the primary financial support for ministries such as lifelong catechesis, vocations, youth and young adult ministry, Catholic Charities, and many, many more.
Your gift of $50 or $100 would go a long way in supporting these vital ministries of the Diocese of Evansville. You can make your gift by dropping your CPC card in the Sunday Collection basket or make a secure contribution at www.evdio.org.
