​Why do we have an Annual Bishop's Appeal?

The Annual Bishop’s Appeal funds the diverse ministries and services that we do best collectively as a diocese, rather than as 81 individual parishes. The work funded by the Annual Bishop’s Appeal enables our diocese to reach across parish boundaries in areas of:
• Evangelization
• Clergy
• Charity & Pastoral Ministries
• Education & Formation

Before the Bishop’s Appeal, the work of the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend was financed, in part, by a 13 percent tax on all parish income. In 1987 the first Bishop’s Appeal was initiated and resulted in the reduction of parish tax to six percent on the parish offertory only. The Bishop’s Appeal funds the required ministries and services throughout the diocese and, at the same time, helps to strengthen parishes by reducing the parish assessment tax.

A successful Bishop’s Appeal is also a financial benefit to the parish since all funds contributed over the assigned parish goal are returned to the respective parish. A successful Bishop’s Appeal for your parish means not only success for our diocese, but also success for your parish.
