The Gospel mandate, and an unwavering emphasis of Pope Francis, is that our love for God must be reflected in our love for one another, especially the weak and vulnerable. In response to that call, our Diocese remains fully committed to increasing our outreach to feed, clothe, educate and pray with those in most need of assistance.
The Bishop’s Annual Appeal (BAA) is the combined effort of all parishes and parishioners in the Diocese of Raleigh to provide this outreach. With the help of God, our combined efforts can have a tremendous impact in responding to those who depend on our help.
The theme of the 2021 Bishop’s Annual Appeal is "One Family In Christ." The Church and its people are facing challenges. More than ever, it’s time to have hope and rebuild. Through Mass, prayer, retreats, service and formation, the faithful may deepen their relationship with God and grow spiritually.
The BAA kicks off in January and concludes in December. Thank you for your support!

Once our parish BAA goal has been reached, St Thomas More will receive 100% of all BAA funds collected. These will be used to meet parish needs.
