"Each of you must bring a gift in proportion
to the way the LORD your God has blessed you."
Deuteronomy 16:17
"Rejoicing and Giving Glory to God" is the theme of our 2022 annual diocesan appeal. In making a gift to the 2021 Bishop's Ministry Appeal, you join hands with thousands whose generosity brings the love of Christ to so many in our Diocese. Your gift directly supports diocesan ministries serving all the parishes.
We are blessed to be given so much here at St. Bernard's Parish and in the Diocese of Stockton. But there is always more we can do. There are so many hearts, minds and souls we can touch with God's love. Your gift, whether large or small, really does make a difference. We respectfully ask you to prayerfully consider making a sacrificial gift in support of the BMA.

We will be applying our 2022 BMA rebate towards the purchase of SOLAR for our Eaton Avenue location, so everyone's participation, whether large or small will make a difference. This is a prudent way for us to help off-set our PG&E expenses so we can apply the money we save on PG&E towards our mission of leading people to an encounter with Christ.
