Dear Catholic Charities Family,
As we prepare for Thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to express my thanks for your compassionate service and commitment to our mission. For this, I am profoundly grateful. We have been given many blessings from God, and still, these are challenging times. I am reminded that Christ does not promise a life without troubles; in fact, He tells us we must take up our cross and put our trust in Him. He also tells us if we have faith the size of a mustard seed, we can do incredible things! In this time of growing need, we trust that God hears every prayer and knows our needs before we ask. Thank you for your unwavering dedication. May Christ, who is the true source of hope, guide and bless you abundantly in the days ahead.
Warmly,
Katie Baxter, CEO
