Last Year's Campaign - 2007 ABCD

Gifts to the ABCD…

• Enabled faith programs to enhance spiritual life for all of us through retreats, encounters, and direct ministry, forming a greater understanding of our faith and our mission as one body on earth.
• Helped to keep the doors of struggling parishes and fledgling ministries open to all who wish to enter.
• Supported schools that serve our poorest neighborhoods so that they can bring enlightenment to the little ones who witness the hardships of life around them every day.
• Supported our shepherds by providing for them and forming strong, capable young priests prepared to serve the faithful.

Priority was given to those projects and programs not parish-specific and to efforts serving people in the Archdiocese of Miami with the greatest needs, both physical and spiritual.
