Dear Friend, During this holy season of Lent, a time for prayer, sacrifice, and almsgiving, we are grateful for your commitment to the life of your parish and the Archdiocese of New York through the Cardinal’s Annual Stewardship Appeal. Your generosity sustains parish communities, supports clergy, and assists neighbors in need. We are pleased to share a brief Lenten message from our new Archbishop of New York, His Excellency Archbishop Ronald A. Hicks. In this reflection, he invites all faithful to renew their relationship with Christ and expresses sincere appreciation for those whose prayers and contributions strengthen Catholic ministry throughout New York. Please take a moment to watch the archbishop’s message below. During these days of Lent, we invite you to remember the Church in prayer and consider participating in the Appeal through your local parish. As Archbishop Hicks reminds us, your generosity strengthens the foundation of our Church. May God bless you and your family throughout Lent.
