Rejoice in the Lord always. I shall say it again: rejoice!
(Philippians 4:4)
And rejoice we do! Because of your extraordinary generosity through the Because He First Loved Us campaign, our Diocese is alive with good news and I am delighted to share some of those highlights with you.
Serving as president of the Foundation’s Board of Trustees is a true privilege. I have the joy of witnessing the fruits of your giving firsthand. As a separate entity from the Diocese itself, the Foundation pursues a focused mission: to serve and strengthen the people, parishes, ministries, and apostolic mission of the Diocese of Helena. We do this by building endowments for every parish and ministry, making quarterly distributions, funding a vibrant grants program for evangelization across Western Montana, and growing our Legacy Society for those who wish to extend their love of the faith for generations to come.
None of this would be possible without you. Your faith, your generosity, and your deep love for the Church is profoundly impacting our corner of the world. It is a true blessing to serve our Lord in this way. Let us rejoice in His goodness!
In Christ,
Erica Matelich | President 2025-2027
