Because of Covid-19, I have been unable to continue my preaching ministry to parishes and retreat centers across the USA.  Preaching is a major fund-raiser that helps keep this website free for our readers.  In the last 3 months the number of English and Spanish speaking visitors to this website has increased to over 250,000.  We are working on a way to do retreats online, but that might not be ready until the Fall.  In the meanwhile, it would be a great help if you could make a donation to maintain our free service.  Just click the donate button below if you are able to help.  And as always, “Blessings on your preaching”!!

Thank you,
Fr Jude Siciliano, OP

Real Estate - If you own property that is fully paid off and has appreciated in value, an outright gift may be the simplest solution. You can deduct the fair market value of your gift, avoid all capital gains taxes and remove that asset from your taxable estate. You can also donate your personal residence and retain the right to live in your home for the rest of your life (lives). Please contact fr Jude (cf. Above)

Matching Gifts - Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions made by their employees. Some companies match gifts made by retirees and/or spouses. If your company has a matching gift program, request a matching gift form from your employer, and send it completed and signed with your gift to:
