## We Appreciate You!

### We just want to let you know how much we appreciate your generosity

My dear friend,

I want to say thank you for giving to Bread. Your support means so much, and it will help us continue to grow so we can reach more Catholics to help them deepen their faith, as well as reach those who have left and bring them back to the Church.

Bread origin is one of thoughtful consideration. When Marie and I decided to launch Bread it was something we took a long time to consider. I run a marketing agency full-time and Marie was working at another Catholic organization. Ultimately, the decision was based on our understanding that the Catholic faith is shared in many different arenas now, and digital media allows us to reach many. Yes, this was necessary.

We also decided to focus on the Mass and the Eucharist. As St. Pope John Paul II called the Eucharist the “the Source and Summit,” it was key that it was the cornerstone of our ministry. It was the power of the sacraments that lead to also include the Mass in our mission, as it was not a repetitive hour we accept each week… no, it is the beauty of heaven and earth meeting to celebrate the creator, the redeemer, the God of all things.

So, our mission is to educate, inspire, and share the beauty of the Mass and the miracle of the Eucharist to deepen our relationships with Christ and His Church. And Bread’s impact is for me, as much as it for others. God informs my soul through Bread’s resources. I am guided, altered, instructed, and moved by Bread. This is why no one at Bread takes a salary. We need this too!

Nevertheless, it is through God’s grace, and your generosity, that we have reached millions of Catholics and lapsed Catholics. We have personal stories of growth and redemption. This work is our work… all of us, together, doing what we can to be fisher’s of men and answer God’s call on our life.

Again, thank you so much, and please enjoy and connect with our resources. Share them. They are all free to use.

May God bless you and your family, and you are in our prayers.
