Pilgrims of Hope – 2025–2026 Annual Appeal

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” – Jeremiah 29:11

Pope Francis reminded us that hope gives us direction and purpose in life. As a supernatural gift of the Spirit, hope flourishes because of God’s goodness. Even in times of challenge, we trust that He walks beside us, carrying our burdens and guiding us toward light and peace.

This year, as Pilgrims of Hope, we ask for the intercession of Pope Francis and St. Henry to strengthen us on our shared journey toward faith, prosperity, and a brighter future.

Your generosity to the 2025–2026 Annual Appeal directly impacts the mission of St. Henry District High School by:

Providing tuition assistance to families in need
Supporting critical infrastructure and facility improvements
Covering unexpected expenses that arise throughout the year
