Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:

Estimados Hermanas y Hermanos en Cristo:

This letter accompanies the annual report for the 2017-2018 Catholic Services Appeal (CSA) through June 30, 2018. 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 $6.1 million pledged from more than 20,000 families.

Esta carta acompaña al reporte anual del Llamado Para Los Servicios Católicos 2017-2018 (CSA por sus siglas en inglés) que abarca hasta el 30 de junio de 2018. Continúo sintiéndome honrado por la generosidad y apoyo de tanta gente hacia nuestro llamado diocesano. Este año, se impuso un récord nuevo de $6.1 millones comprometidos por parte de más de 20,000 familias.

The 2017-2018 theme “Be One in Christ” is the heart of Catholicism. We are united with Christ and one another as the Body of Christ. When one of us suffers, we all suffer; and, when one of us rejoices, we all rejoice.

El tema de 2017-2018 “Ser Uno en Cristo” se encuentra en el corazón del Catolicismo. Estamos unidos con Cristo y entre nosotros como el Cuerpo de Cristo. Cuando uno de nosotros sufre, todos sufrimos, y, cuando uno de nosotros se regocija, todos nos regocijamos.

Your gift to the CSA is helping to strengthen existing programs, expanding our mission of making and nourishing disciples and assisting those in need. I thank you on behalf of all who benefit from your generosity. May God bless you always and strengthen you in faith. Gratefully in Christ,

Su donativo para el CSA está ayudando a fortalecer los programas existentes, expandiendo nuestra misión de crear y nutrir discípulos y de asistir a los necesitados. Yo les doy las gracias en nombre de todos los que se benefician de su generosidad. Que Dios los bendiga siempre y fortalezca su fe. Agradecidamente en Cristo,

Most Reverend Joe S. Vásquez Bishop of Austin

Reverendo José S. Vásquez Obispo de Austin
