Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:
Estimados Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo:
This letter accompanies the annual report for the 2015-2016 Catholic Services Appeal (CSA) through June 30, 2016. I continue to be humbled by your generosity and support to our diocesan appeal. This year a record high was set with $5.8 million pledged from more than 22,000 families.
Esta carta acompaña al reporte anual del Llamado Para los Servicios Católicos (CSA por sus siglas en inglés) 2015-2016 que abarca hasta el día 30 de junio de 2016. Continúo sintiéndome humilde ante su generosidad y apoyo hacia nuestro llamado diocesano. Este año se estableció un alto récord de $5.8 millones comprometidos por parte de más de 22,000 familias.
The theme for this year’s appeal, Hands of Mercy, is meant to call us to action as a community of disciples to bring the hope and love of Christ to others. Your gifts to the CSA assist in promoting a culture of life, supporting vocations, and educating our youth. Through these and many other ministries and programs supported by the CSA, we come together as one Body of Christ, exhibiting God’s mercy to all who are in need. Your gift of treasure is a tangible and powerful witness of your love for God.
El tema del llamado de este año Manos de Misericordia, está destinado a ser un llamado a la acción como comunidad de discípulos para llevar la esperanza y el amor de Cristo a otros. Sus donativos para el CSA asisten en la promoción de una cultura de vida, apoyan las vocaciones y educan a nuestra juventud. A través de estos y muchos otros ministerios y programas apoyados por el CSA, nos unimos como un Cuerpo de Cristo, mostrando la misericordia de Dios a todos los que se encuentran necesitados. Su donativo financiero es un testimonio tangible y poderoso de su amor por Dios.
I am inspired by the abiding faith and commitment that I see throughout the diocese, and I am proud of what we accomplish when we work together. 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.
Me siento inspirado por la fe y el compromiso permanente que veo a lo largo de toda la diócesis, y me siento orgulloso de lo que logramos cuando trabajamos juntos. En nombre de aquellos cuyas vidas han mejorado a través del Llamado Para los Servicios Católicos — gracias. Su amabilidad significa mucho para mí y para nuestra entera familia diocesana.
Gratefully in Christ,
Agradecidamente en Cristo,
Most Reverend Joe S. Vásquez Bishop of Austin
