Each year, the Diocese asks every parish, every person to participate in the Diocesan Services Appeal (DSA). The DSA is an opportunity to participate personally in the service and care provided through the many good works of the Catholic Church. DSA contributions are put to work, right away, in a multitude of ministries and spiritual activities to offer direct assistance to individuals and families, to our parishes and schools. Our parish goal is $118,043. 
 
This goal can be reached if each one of us shares a portion of the many blessings God has bestowed upon us. We ask that everyone give something. No gift is too small…every dollar donated helps those in our parish and in our unified efforts in the wider church. One-half of all paid contributions received, over and above our parish goal, will be returned to our parish for our local use here at St. Andrew.
 
You can submit your DSA pledge envelope during Mass this weekend - or take your DSA envelope home, prayerfully consider your gift decision. It is possible to make a one-time gift or a pledge that is paid monthly over the course of the year. Those paying by cash or check are invited to return your completed pledge form, in the DSA envelope, to our parish office.

Those who wish to pay by credit card or electronic funds may enter your gift online.

2023 DSA Prayer
Loving and gracious God, we praise you and we thank you for the bountiful gifts that you have given us. Let us turn to you ever more deeply in the true presence of the Eucharist and find new life in your sacrifice on the altar! Inspire us to give of ourselves to DSA in service to you as a member of your Holy Catholic Church.  Bestow your many blessings on our humble labors so we may grow more united in sharing your love with all we encounter. Amen.
