My Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:

Estimados Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo:

This letter accompanies the annual report for the 2016-2017 Catholic Services Appeal (CSA) through June 30, 2017. I continue to be humbled by the generosity and support of so many people towards our diocesan appeal. This year a record high was set with $5.9 million pledged from more than 22,000 families.

Esta carta acompaña el reporte anual del Llamado Para Los Servicios Católicos (CSA por sus siglas en inglés) del año 2016-2017 que abarca hasta el 30 de junio de 2017. Continúo sintiéndome humildemente agradecido por la generosidad y el apoyo de tanta gente hacia nuestro llamado diocesano. Este año se impuso un nuevo récord de $5.9 millones comprometidos por parte de más de 22,000 familias.

The theme for the 2016-2017 appeal was “Living Water” (Jn 4:14). The living water that Jesus gives is not something earned; it is a gift from God. When we encounter Jesus he offers us living water. The CSA is an invitation to people and faith communities of Central Texas to participate in the Lord’s work — work that no one parish or individual can do alone. Through the many ministries supported by the CSA, we come together as disciples of Christ to help those in need. Your gift supports vital diocesan ministries that include formation of our future priests, care for our retired priests, and formation and training for our deacons. And, your gift nourishes and educates our children and helps to strengthen each of our faith communities.

El tema del llamado 2016-2017 fue “Agua Viva” (Jn 4:14). El agua viva que Jesús da no es algo que ganamos; es un regalo de Dios. Cuando nos encontramos con Jesús, Él nos ofrece el agua viva. El CSA es una invitación para la gente y las comunidades de fe del Centro de Texas a participar en la obra del Señor — trabajo que ninguna parroquia o individuo puede hacer solo. A través de los muchos ministerios apoyados por el CSA, nos reunimos como discípulos de Cristo para ayudar a los necesitados. Su donativo apoya a ministerios diocesanos vitales que incluyen la formación de nuestros futuros sacerdotes, el cuidado de nuestros sacerdotes retirados, y la formación y el entrenamiento de nuestros diáconos. Y, su donativo nutre y educa a nuestros niños y ayuda a fortalecer a cada una de nuestras comunidades de fe.

I am thankful for the financial and prayerful support of those who contribute to the Catholic Services Appeal (CSA) each year. Your generosity is instrumental in assisting thousands of people. On behalf of those whose lives are improved through the Catholic Services Appeal — thank you. Your kindness means so much to me and to our entire diocesan family.

Estoy agradecido por el apoyo financiero y espiritual de aquellos que contribuyen al Llamado Para los Servicios Católicos (CSA) cada año. Su generosidad es instrumental en la asistencia de miles de personas. En nombre de aquellos cuyas vidas son mejoradas a través del Llamado Para Los Servicios Católicos — gracias. Su bondad significa mucho para mí y para toda nuestra familia diocesana.

Gratefully in Christ,

Agradecidamente en Cristo,

Most Reverend Joe S. Vásquez Bishop of Austin

Monseñor José S. Vásquez Obispo de Austin
