Dear Supporters of Life,
On Sunday, December 27th during the Mass of Hope and Thanksgiving at St. Priscilla’s Church, the formal announcement to establish the Fr. Michael J. McGivney Center of Hope and Healing was made.

The goal of the Fr. Michael J. McGivney Center of Hope and Healing is to serve women who have decided to parent their children. This facility will serve our ministry by providing transitional housing. This assistance will be there for women while they are pregnant and continue for a time after they have given birth.

We will provide tangible assistance with shelter, food, counseling, job training and parenting classes. In this way we will demonstrate the love and nurturing that is missing in most of these young mothers’ lives.

We are looking to purchase a convent or appropriate building to address our needs. This is a major undertaking, but we are confident that through fundraising, volunteerism and the power of prayer, we can create a center that will truly make an impact on the lives of these new moms and their babies!

We have to raise the necessary funds to purchase and operate the Center. We are appealing to all those who believe in this Ministry, to help us with their donations by writing a check to support the center. Consider the Center in your Estate planning and/or your Life Insurance program. With donations both large and small, this center will accomplish our goals and provide a model for the future!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about the center or ways in which you can make a difference. With God’s help and your willingness to make it work, it will happen!

Sincerely,
Tony Mangiaracina
