Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

By assisting low-income people in making decisions that influence their lives, families, and communities, the CCHD aims to end the cycle of poverty. CCHD provides a hand up rather than a handout. The additional goal of CCHD is to inform people about poverty and its causes.

The mission of the Scriptures and the tenets of Catholic social teaching are reflected in this technique of educating for justice and assisting those who are poor in speaking and acting for themselves. The Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) offers Catholic believers practical practical opportunity to demonstrate their love for God and neighbor in ways that reflect our baptismal mission and ongoing Eucharistic change.

Catholics in the United States generously fund CCHD, particularly through an annual collection. CCHD is a crucial component of the social mission of the Church in the United States and a distinctive facet of the Catholic community’s extensive commitment to helping low-income individual, families, and communities.

With every best wish and an assurance of prayers, I remain,

Sincerely Yours in Christ,
Most Rev. Daniel H. Mueggenborg,
Bishop of Reno

 

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, 

The Bishops of the United States are leading the Church in America in a Eucharistic Revival. The Diocese of Reno, along with other dioceses, will be joining in this national effort. It is our prayerful hope that this Revival will raise up a movement of Catholics across the United States who are healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist - and sent out in mission "for the life of the world."

Although the initiatives may differ in each local Church ([Arch]Diocese), the purpose is the same: To renew the Church by enkindling a living relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist.

This multi-year Eucharistic Revival will begin on the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of the Lord (June 19, 2022) and continue for three years. During this time, we will foster Eucharistic encounters through preaching and Eucharistic devotion. We will proclaim the doctrine of the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist through our teaching, worship, and charitable deeds. We will also partner with local and parish movements, apostolates, and educational institutions. Our hope is that we will be able to reach every family in our parishes and that we will grow in our appreciation of the rich Eucharistic traditions present in our many cultures.

The specific initiatives to be promoted will help Catholics deepen their understanding of the Eucharist, increase their appreciation for the Eucharist, lead to a more profound participation in the Mass, grow Eucharistic Adoration, and encourage greater commitment to serve others as the Body of Christ, the Church.
