2023 South Jersey Catholic Ministries Appeal
My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The House of Charity -- Bishop's Annual Appeal campaign now adopts a new name: the South Jersey Catholic Ministries Appeal. This title reflects the diversity of ministries annually supported by the generous giving of our faith community.
While the name of the appeal is new, what is consistent throughout the many years of this effort is you: faithful members of the Church who generously contribute to this Annual Appeal so that our Catholic ministries will have the resources needed to carry out their much needed work throughout South Jersey.
Once again, I ask for your support. The theme of this year's campaign is: "For the Life of the World," which reminds us of the Eucharist. In every way, the work of these ministries emanates from the Eucharist.
Your gift allows our Church to provide a variety of programs and ministries in South Jersey which serve the poor and the marginalized, the physically challenged, food pantries, and the spiritually hungry. Your donation also supports our seminarians, retired priests, candidates for the permanent diaconate, children in religious education programs, Catholic Schools, teenagers in youth ministry, programs for special-needs children athletes Archbishop Damiano School, and so much more.
With this in mind, I ask that you prayerfully consider supporting the South Jersey Catholic Ministries Appeal. Together our many gifts will strengthen the One Body of Christ in the Diocese of Camden.
With deep gratitude, I thank you for all that you do to build up our Church, especially through the South Jersey Catholic Ministries Appeal.
Sincerely in Christ,
Most Reverend Dennis J. Sullivan
Bishop of Camden Diocese

Saint Michael the Archangel Regional School provides Pre-K through Grade 8 education through a faith-centered curriculum steeped in strong Catholic values with an emphasis on simplicity, prayer, and service. Through a family-oriented environment, our students develop intellectually, physically, socially, and spiritually in preparation for higher education, a culturally-diverse society, and becoming contributors to the community-at-large.

We’ve all met individuals in our lives who we could say are a stick-in-the-mud. Earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, or twenty-foot waves couldn’t move them. Content and satisfied, they stay put doing the same things, eating the same foods, and / or watching the same TV shows. Often these individuals have few friends. However, for most of us, our natural instinct is to move on … searching for new experiences, new possibilities, and new challenges. Peter, in this weekend’s Gospel, is acting like a stick-in-the-mud. His first response to Jesus’ transfigured glory is to simply stay put. “Lord, it is good that we are here.” He wants to erect tents and he wants to stay on the mountain top. Jesus, quite simply, has other plans.
