Bishop Barron presents the Works of Mercy Fun

Dear Friend,

I’m pleased to share that Word on Fire is establishing a new Works of Mercy Fund that will allow us to donate our books, films, and other evangelical materials to individuals and communities who could most benefit from them.

We often receive requests from hospitals, schools, prisons, parishes, libraries, and other organizations to receive our materials so that they can be used to spread the Gospel to those on both the social and existential margins.

Will you make a gift to support this fund so that we can proclaim Christ in the culture by sharing our resources with those who need them most? Your generosity can help change lives.

SUPPORT THE WORKS OF MERCY FUND
For nearly twenty-five years, Word on Fire has existed to draw people into—or back to—the Catholic faith. Once people have made the choice to live for Christ, they have accepted the challenge to love as Christ loves, and living out the corporal and spiritual works of mercy is a perfect blueprint for that.

With your support, Word on Fire’s Works of Mercy Fund will give us the opportunity to spread the light of Christ to so many. We can equip hospital and prison chaplains, teachers and lay ministers, members of the military, religious and clergy serving poor faith communities, and countless others with the materials they need to proclaim the Catholic faith. Your generosity can help us change hearts and draw people deeper into a relationship with Christ.

Please know of my prayers for you, and please pray for the success of this initiative and all who will benefit from it. May we all experience and accept the unending mercy of God and seek to extend that same mercy to others.

In Christ,

Bishop Robert Barron
Word on Fire Catholic Ministries, PO Box 97330, Washington, DC 20090-7330, United States
