Hello wonderful friends! Today, I want to share something important that can help make the world a better place for kids and families in need. πβ€οΈ
Have you ever heard of the Catholic Arkansas Sharing Appeal, or CASA? It's all about "Living Faith, Changing Lives." This year, the mission is to raise $2 million to help support many programs that do great things in our community. Let's dive into how you can be a part of this amazing experience!
**Why is CASA Important?**
CASA helps in so many ways! Your contributions support:

- **Faith Formation and Youth Programs**: Special grants ensure that religious education and youth events are fun and informative! πβ¨
- **Diocesan Ministries**: Helps support many diocesan offices that do good work every single day. π€
- **Seminarian Expenses**: Helps pay for future priests to go to school and live while they study. π§βπ
- **Catholic Charities of Arkansas**: Provides critical services like helping immigrants and refugees find better lives. π
- **Respect Life Office**: Organizes events that promote respect for all life, such as the Mass for Life. πΆ
