Diocesan Annual Appeal 2024: Answering the Call: Supporting Catholic Media Efforts

In this inspiring video, we explore the vital role of support for the 2024 Diocesan Annual Appeal in funding Catholic media initiatives that spread faith and connect our community. By making a gift, parishioners help sustain crucial programs such as the television broadcasts for the Daily Mass from the Cathedral of Saint Peter in Scranton, the printing and distribution of The Catholic Light newspaper each month, and innovative digital evangelization efforts.
The video opens with an interview of Angela Howland of Clarks Summit, a parishioner of Our Lady of the Snows Parish, who faces health challenges and relies on the Daily Mass broadcasts to stay connected to her faith while not being able to attend Mass in person.
With testimonials from the Pastor of the Cathedral of Saint Peter, the video illustrates how media efforts can enrich the spiritual lives of individuals and strengthen the wider Church community.
The video concludes with a heartfelt call to action, inviting viewers to contribute to the 2024 Diocesan Annual Appeal. By doing so, parishioners will ensure the continued success of these essential media programs, expanding their reach and impact in spreading the Gospel and connecting Catholics everywhere.
Interviews include:
• Angela Howland of Clarks Summit (Our Lady of the Snows Parish, Clarks Summit) who regularly watches the CTV Broadcast Masses because of health challenges
