"Each of you must bring a gift in proportion
to the way the LORD your God has blessed you."
Deuteronomy 16:17
Moving Forward in Gratitude & Hope, Together as One is the theme of our 2021 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.
