Meet the people impacted by your gift

“What excites me most about priesthood is sharing, in a small way, in the endless love of God for his people and of Christ for his Church, especially through preaching and reconciliation.”

– Deacon Daniel Rivas, Transitional Deacon for the Archdiocese of Denver

“We met so many giving people, and it’s been so amazing the connections we’ve made. It’s been a God thing, how it all started and how we’ve gotten here.” 


– Dee and Steve Perez, Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal Disciples of the Month

“The biggest spiritual hope I have for people who come to Fiat Fest is the witness our missionaries can be to serve the Lord, especially in serving each person that comes through camp.”

– Hank Buckingham, Annunciation Heights Camp Administrator

Our Christian Obligation to Tithe

As Christians, we are called to give back to God a portion of what He has generously given to us. A tithe is a donation of 10% of one’s annual earnings in support of the Church or other charitable causes. Tithing is rooted in the Bible, and is an act of faith and obedience, reflecting our trust in God’s provision and our commitment to supporting His work on Earth.

One formula suggests donating 5% of our annual income to our parish, 3% to other charities, and 2% to the archdiocese through a gift to the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal.

By contributing to the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal, you fulfill this sacred obligation and help sustain the vital ministries that nurture faith, provide education, and offer essential services to those in need.

With a gift of just $84 per month, you’ll become a Nine Choirs of Angels donor!

The Nine Choirs of Angels Leadership Giving Society includes over 2,300 members of our faithful who donate $1,000 plus or practice $84 or more of consistent monthly contributions. By giving monthly, you will also join our Loaves & Fish Society, which provides exclusive discounts and news.

The “Nine Choirs of Angels” Levels of Leadership Giving was created as a guide to assist donors in offering a stewardship based gift. Stewardship is the realization that everything we have – our families, possessions, careers – is a free and unmerited gift from God. This year, a record number of contributors have enthusiastically embraced the call to stewardship. And for this, we are very grateful.

We extend heartfelt thanks to the over 2,300 donors who support the Church with monthly contributions. Your ongoing gifts are vital for sustaining our ministries year-round. By donating just $84 each month, you can join us at the Guardian Angel level and make a significant impact.
