Pastoral Services Appeal 2026

The 2026 Pastoral Service Appeal has begun. Contributions to the Pastoral Services Appeal (PSA) are used by the Diocese of Orange to support various programs and ministries that further the mission of our Catholic faith: helping others find a path towards Jesus Christ. These ministries and services include Catholic Education, Catholic Charities of Orange County, Seminarian Formation, Vocations, The Permanent Diaconate, Priest Retirement, and so much more. In fact, for every dollar given, 95 cents goes directly to fund the vital initiative in our local Church. Only 5% of your contribution is used for administrative, communications and/or fundraising costs.

Our parish goal for this year is $168,000. All funds exceeding our goal are returned to the parish through parish rebates which directly support our parish.

Rebates from previous years have allowed us to complete many projects such as improvements to security cameras, access control doors, and addressed deferred maintenance needs. Our roof repair was also completed last summer, and solar installation has begun and should be completed by Holy Week.

Our rebates this year will be directed to updating and addressing some much-needed repairs to the interior of the Family & Youth Center. The updates and repairs will enhance the use of this facility for all the activities which take place in this building throughout the year from parish meetings, ministry gatherings, and school events.

I also want to thank everyone who participated in the appeal this past year. Please prayerfully consider your ability to participate in this year’s appeal. When you’re ready, please use the envelope you received in the mail or in the pew for your gift or pledge. You may either mail it directly to the processing center at the address below or drop it off at the parish or in the Sunday collection basket. You may go directly to the Orange Diocesan website to donate online.

Please be sure to select St. Norbert Church when donating online.
