Christmas Special Collection Materials
The diocesan Christmas Special Collection is an opportunity to show our support for our diocesan seminarians and infirm priests. You can help raise awareness about this collection by sharing information in your parish bulletin, in the parish building and on parish social media channels. We’ve compiled a promotional toolkit at this link with ready-to-share graphics and videos highlighting the importance of this collection.
Within the promotional toolkit, you will find:
- 8.5″x11″ flyer
- Bulletin graphic
- Several social media graphics and videos
- Sample text for each graphic/video that you can copy into a social media post
Thank you for your assistance in promoting this important collection!

Bishop McKnight's December Prayer Intention
Bishop McKnight's prayer intention will be published at this link every month for easy access.
For hope to find a home in our hearts as we embrace the joy of Christ’s birth. Amid the jubilation, may we also find time in prayer to experience the calm and peace of God’s presence in our lives.
Para que la esperanza encuentre un hogar en nuestros corazones al abrazar la alegría del nacimiento de Cristo. Que en esta alegría también encontremos tiempo en oración para experimentar la calma y la paz de la presencia de Dios en nuestras vidas.
