The
Year End Gift That Keeps On Giving
As
we prepare to celebrate the joys of the Christmas season,
it is an appropriate time to consider how we can share our
many blessings with others. With a little careful planning,
your year-end charitable gifts can make a significant, lasting
impact on your community while offering you possible tax
advantages, as well. Click
here to learn how you can contribute to the endowment
fund of your parish, school or favorite ministry such as
Catholic Social Service, The Foundation for Senior Living
or Life Teen. By supporting the endowment fund of your choice,
you can truly provide a gift that keeps on giving.

Plans
for 2005 Crozier Dinner Are Well Underway
The
committee for the 17th Annual Crozier Dinner recently held
its kick-off meeting at the Diocesan Pastoral Center. Event
chair Lynn Donahue and more than 50 volunteers were in attendance.
The 17th annual Crozier Dinner will take place on Saturday,
April 16 at the Camelback Inn, A JW Marriott Resort in Paradise
Valley. Last year's dinner raised $150,000 for tuition assistance
and other services such as the televised Catholic Mass. To

Foundation
Unveils New Website
We
invite you to visit the Foundation's newly redesigned website
at www.ccfphx.org.
The new design makes it faster and easier to find the information
you need. You'll find inspiring donor stories, convenient
gift calculators, tax updates and much more at the Planned
Giving section.
We've also introduced a new service that delivers a scripture
message to your e-mail inbox each morning. It's a beautiful
way to start the day.
Be sure to check out our new bulletin board feature designed
to help our parishes, schools, and ministries promote their
special events and announcements.
While
you're visiting our new site, you can also sign up to receive
a copy of our 2004 Stewardship Report if you haven't already
received one.
We
welcome and encourage any comments or questions regarding
these messages or the web site. You may contact Thomas Thieken
at tthieken@ccfphx.org
or 602.354.2401.
