Nearly 40% of dioceses in the U.S. and its territories struggle to meet basic pastoral needs. Mission parishes across the country face similar challenges: small Catholic populations, great distances between parishes, and economic hardships that make it difficult for parishes to meet the pastoral needs of their communities. Your support of the Catholic Home Missions Appeal makes the day-to-day ministries of these parishes possible through grants to the eparchy for parish operations, seminary formation, training of parish catechetical leaders, youth ministry support, and more.
