Subject: A Quick Update for the CMCS Fall Appeal!
Dear Friends,
To keep our important work going, we rely on the generosity of supporters like you.
Our goal is to raise $1,000.00 to ensure the CMCS Apostolate and online ministry can operate debt-free through December 2025.
So far 75% of this goal has been met.
Every contribution counts—whether it’s $10, $25, $30, or $100, each dollar truly makes a difference! Time is of the essence.
We urge you to make your donation now, while it’s on your mind.
If you’re unable to contribute financially, your prayers are always appreciated. Thank you for your continued support and generosity!

Note:
Following a recent meeting with Bishop Bartosic
, it was emphasized that a key objective of CMCS
is to empower men to articulate why Jesus is significant to them and to share the transformative impact Jesus has on their lives. This initiative aims to provide uplifting Catholic encouragement for 'Living the Goodness of a Catholic Man.' However, to maintain our operations and keep our resources available to all readers in Chicagoland
, we invite you to consider making a one-time or recurring donation
. Your support is crucial to ensuring CMCS
can continue its important work.
