The CMA funds diocesan wide services to parishes and institutions, supports seminarians, deacons, education of youth, serves people in need through Catholic Charities, funds the ministries of the Pope & Bishop and funds the operations of the diocese.  The goal set for St. Mary Our Mother this year is $112,209.  No gifts to the CMA are used to satisfy legal or settlement costs.  Any shortfall in our goal must be made up from our parish funds.  No gift is too small as we work toward meeting our goal.  Thank you for your consideration of a gift toward our CMA appeal.
