The Annual Catholic Appeal funds ministries and services for your local Catholic community across Western Washington. This combined effort of parishes and the Archdiocese of Seattle ensures the availability of outreach ministries, Catholic education, faith formation, administrative services for parishes and much more!

The 2026 Annual Catholic Appeal

Together In Faith is the theme of this year’s Annual Catholic Appeal. Please prayerfully consider how you can participate in helping our parish be a light to others. Donations received beyond our archdiocesan goal ($188,297) will be returned to our parish as a rebate for our ACA parish project. Read about our rebate project below. Thank you to those who have replied with your 2026 ACA gift or pledge! If you are ready to make an ACA gift, you can do so today by visiting archseattle.org/GiveACA.

2026 ACA Rebate Project

The archdiocese has set our parish goal as $188,297. Any additional funds will be returned to our parish as a rebate. Our ACA rebate project this year is twofold. The first $55,000 of our ACA rebate will be used to welcome a FOCUS Parish Missionary to St. Monica beginning in the summer of 2027. Through small groups, Bible studies, and prayer gatherings, the missionary will help us deepen our faith and strengthen our sense of community. FOCUS missionaries have been serving pastors and hundreds of lay leaders across the country to help build a culture of missionary discipleship. And parishes are being transformed. This is not a program; it’s Christ’s model of face-to-face evangelization, and of building a community of disciples who are both faithful to the Church and equipped with the practical skills to share their faith with others. All remaining rebate money will help fund new energy efficient HVAC and window systems for the church and school. Thank you for your prayerful commitment to support the 2026 Annual Catholic Appeal. You can make your gift securely and conveniently online at archseattle.org/GiveACA.

If you gave last year, please consider increasing your gift by 5% this year. If you did not give last year, would you consider a gift of a dollar a day ($365)? Gifts of any amount are welcome, and your gift will make a big impact on many lives!

All gifts have until April 2027 to be fulfilled. Thank you for your support and participation!
