2024 Diocesan Services Fund (DSF) with Nick Sawicki and Deacon Jeff Willard
February 5, 2024
Season 02, Episode 02

The annual Diocesan Services Fund (DSF) campaign is here! Each year, we still get questions about what it is, how the money is used, and who it actually helps. This week, we talk with Nick Sawicki from the Office of Development to learn more about how the money is used to support the 64 pastoral and educational ministries of the Archdiocese. We then speak with Deacon Jeff Willard, one of our Port Chaplains, as he shares with us about our diocesan ministry to seafarers - a vital and important ministry that most people of the Archdiocese don't know about.

We encourage everyone to prayerfully consider donating to the Diocesan Services Fund. To learn more about the DSF and how the money is used, or to make a one-time or recurring donation, visit archgh.org/dsf.

To learn more about the Port Ministry and Deacon Jeff's work, you can visit the Galveston Seafarers Center website at galvestonseafarerscenter.org.

O Emmanuel, our King and Giver of Law:
come to save us, Lord our God!

The Roman Church has been singing the "O" Antiphons since at least the eighth century. They are the antiphons that accompany the Magnificat canticle of Evening Prayer from December 17-23. They are a magnificent theology that uses ancient biblical imagery drawn from the messianic hopes of the Old Testament to proclaim the coming Christ as the fulfillment not only of Old Testament hopes, but present ones as well. Their repeated use of the imperative "Come!" embodies the longing of all for the Divine Messiah.
