JOIN US AND SUPPORT THE DIOCESAN IGNITE! CAMPAIGN This campaign reaches many areas that need our support. Those areas include our seminarians (your future pastors), our retired priests who have dedicated their lives to our Diocese, and Faith Formation initiatives that support our Parishes. There will also be a “parish share” portion. At Holy Trinity, we are planning to put this toward the construction of a combination church gathering space and additional classrooms. Lastly, the biggest portion of the campaign will go toward creating a 25 million dollar Catholic Schools Endowment Fund. Learn more about IGNITE! and consider donating online (be sure to designate Holy Trinity). Thank you for your continued generosity!
