Welcome to the resource page for the diocesan Faith, Hope & Courage Offertory Recovery Program. This is a private page for the parishes working with the Office of Stewardship and Development on this special program.

All the materials available on this site have been created for parish use throughout the program to supplement the direct mailing and in-pew materials with strong branding and continuity of messaging. Throughout the course of the program, additional materials may be added as needed or requested.

Over the past few months, we have seen the demand for utilizing new technology and communication vehicles while still utilizing traditional methods to make sure that we are effectively reaching out to all. Therefore, in addition to the traditional bulletin and pulpit announcements, Prayers of the Faithful and talking points and tips for each weekend presentations take place, the Office of Stewardship and Development is pleased to offer materials to complement the virtual world we find ourselves in thanks to the talent and collaboration of the Communication Office.
