Living and Giving in Christ: Unity through Diocesan Ministries is the annual appeal for Diocese of Cheyenne.
“As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace” (1 Peter 4:10).
The above scripture passage is the theme for the Living and Giving in Christ: Unity through Diocesan Ministries 2022 annual appeal. Each one of us has been blessed by God with varied graces. Good stewards are not passive recipients of grace. As intentional disciples of Jesus, they embark on a lifelong journey of conversion and continue on that path without counting the cost. In gratitude, they share their gifts in service of God and neighbor and take seriously their co-responsibility for the mission of Christ.
When you make a financial offering to Living and Giving in Christ, you serve your sisters and brothers by helping to fund essential ministries, including clergy support, evangelization, faith formation for all ages, formation for engaged couples and accompaniment for married couples, seminarian and diaconate formation, campus ministries, communications and technology, and human resources, throughout Wyoming. Healing ministries are made available through the Office of the Chancellor and the Office of the Tribunal, while the legislative liaison works tirelessly to lobby for state laws that respect the sanctity of life, care for the poor and vulnerable, expand healthcare opportunities, encourage restorative justice, and preserve the family.
