   On behalf of Archbishop Gustavo and Father Kevin Ryan we invite you and your family to participate in
this year’s Archbishop’s Appeal for Shared Ministries by offering a sacrificial gift. Our theme for this year’s Appeal is
Our Journey Together.
   What is our Archbishop's Appeal for Shared Ministries? It is the transformative love that is so critical to the life ofour lo-
cal church. It is the ministry shared between St. Mark The Evangelist Catholic Church and the Archdiocese of San Antonio,
between Father Kevin Ryan and Archbishop Gustavo. It is a compassionate love for those most in need.
Let us journey together to financially support the formation of priests and deacons who will serve our parish soon.
    Your financial support helps prepare lay leaders to serve as catechists, chaplains, and lectors. It offers a Catholic education
to families in need. It broadcasts televised Masses and helps expand our reach through other digital media. Your financial sup-
port to this Appeal will share Christ’s love as it feeds, clothes, shelters, and cares for the most vulnerable. All these shared min-
istries, our ministries support our neighbors in need and further the mission ofthe Catholic Church.
    Our parish goal is full participation. To accomplish this, we need your support. Every family should participate by making a
gift to this appeal. Any gift, any amount will make a difference in somebody’s life. I invite you to pray andfind it in your heart to
make a sacrificial gift to this year’s Appeal. Gifts can be given:
