Archbishop shares gratitude for generosity, support of Archbishop’s Annual Appeal

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to announce the 2025-2026 Archbishop’s Annual Appeal has concluded, and thanks to your extraordinary generosity, we met our goal of $5 million. Thanks for all of your prayers, your support and your sacrifices that have helped us to accomplish this goal. These funds assist with fostering vocations, supporting our parishes and schools, bringing the Gospel to those on the margins and serving the poor across northeast Nebraska.

As I reflect on my first year as archbishop, I am grateful for the sacrificial support of so many people across the 23 counties of our archdiocese.

Please keep me in your prayers and know of my daily prayers for you.

In Christ,

The Most Reverend Michael McGovern

Archbishop of Omaha
