Dear Parishioners and Visitors,
Congratulations and God bless you! With the help of many of you, St. Joseph’s Parish here in Lincoln has reached – even exceeded – our 2026 New Hampshire Catholic Appeal (NHCA) goal of $20,468. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church explains, the Precepts of the Catholic Church stem from a spirit of true prayer and moral effort with respect to the growth of love of God and neighbor.
The Fifth Precept obliges ALL the faithful “to assist with the material needs of the Church, each according to his own ability (CCC 2042-2043).” While the list of parish donors has yet to reach 100%, by reaching this goal, we have shown sincere commitment to our faith beyond our parish walls and to the ministries so vital to the growth of our faith in New Hampshire. Thank you for helping to share the mercy of God!
With thanks and prayerful best wishes,
Fr. John Mahoney
