Follow Up: Your Support for Catholic Men Chicago Southland
Stewardship Progress Report
Thank you to the men who have answered this request from last week. Currently, we are confronted with a shortfall of $180.00, that we need to function through February. Many men like you engage with CMCS for our live Men's Forum as well as our online ministry because they want to participate in something that will benefit them in many ways, and to grow in their faith with a group of men in the Vicariate. They understand the need for this time together as men is more important now than in recent years. Please donate today at - give.cmcsmen.net

Once again, as you consider your ability to give, please take into consideration:
- At CMCS Apostolate, we face the challenge of operating without any financial reserves, relying solely on the generosity of those we serve. This model not only ensures that we do not raise more funds than necessary but also allows us to provide our services entirely free of charge to thousands of men throughout the archdiocese each year, at an astonishingly low cost of just pennies per person served.
- Our commitment to minimizing expenses is evident; the CMCS Team is composed entirely of dedicated volunteers, and our director likewise does not draw a salary. By utilizing home offices, we avoid rent and utility expenses, keeping our annual budget below $5,000. This approach enables us to focus on our mission while trusting in God's providence to sustain our efforts.
This campaign determines whether we will have the means to continue through February 2025.. |

Only support from those who value our work can keep this apostolate going.
And if you cannot give,
please pray.

Dear CMCS-Men and Readers, |
|
|
|
I am reaching out to highlight a pressing issue faced by Catholic Men Chicago Southland (CMCS) as we strive to continue our vital operations through February. Currently, we are confronted with a shortfall of $215.00, which poses a challenge to our modest budget built on a foundation of
'Living the Goodness of a Catholic Man' since 2004. We believe our actions create a profound impact, and with your support, we can uphold our commitment to serving God and our community debt-free. Your financial assistance is crucial in helping us maintain this promise and ensure we can continue to make a difference. Thank you for considering supporting our mission during this critical time. |

Each year, we have the privilege of connecting with thousands of individuals from parishes across Chicagoland through our influential Catholic Manhood Forum and a variety of digital resources, often at minimal or no cost. However, this important work is only possible because of the generous support from individuals like you who choose to contribute, whether through a monthly donation of just $10 or a one-time gift. When we unite our efforts, we can achieve remarkable results that make Christ the center of our lives. We invite you to take action by clicking the button below to make a difference today. |

In the spirit of Bishop-elect Larry Sullivan and the CMCS Team, we hope you find divine blessings in the areas where you need them most. |
