One Faith, One Family, One Future in Christ is an Archdiocesan-wide capital campaign that will devote significant resources to strengthening our parishes and parish schools, growing vibrant communities of joyful discipleship, stewarding our community resources and caring for retired priests and the elderly.

The campaign will be conducted in every parish throughout the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas. In addition, Archbishop Naumann will conduct a Leadership Gift Phase of solicitations.

There are extraordinary needs in the Archdiocese that can only be met through an extraordinary fundraising initiative that unites and serves all of the Catholics in Northeast Kansas. Archbishop Naumann has brought to the forefront key areas that require major funding which we seek to address during his tenure, including important parish initiatives, assisting consolidated parishes, promoting a culture of evangelization, caring for retired priests and the elderly.. These are needs that go beyond the scope of the annual Archbishop’s Call to Share.

Each Catholic family in the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas will be asked to consider making a gift to One Faith, One Family, One Future in Christ. This campaign is being conducted in a phased approach so that each member is reached in the appropriate time and manner. While not all members will be able to give at the same level, each will be asked to make a sacrificial commitment.

All parishes will conduct their campaigns as part of a “block” of parishes between July 2018 and June 2020: The first group of parishes (Block One) launched the campaign in July of 2018; the second group of parishes (Block Two) launched the campaign in January of 2019; while some of the third group of parishes (Block Three) launched their campaigns in late 2019, others were launched in March, after Archbishop’s Call to Share, and immediately before COVID-19 resulted in the suspension of Mass. These Block Three parishes will be extending their campaigns through December 2020 to allow additional time for everyone to be invited to join in support of the One Faith campaign.  

The pastor, assigned parish campaign director, and a core group of parish volunteers will lead and coordinate the implementation of the campaign plan. Every parish will receive assistance from the Archdiocesan campaign office staff. Full-time campaign directors will assist parishes on an ongoing basis.

Yes. The Archbishop’s Call to Share is vital to continue funding the day-to-day work of the ministries of the Archdiocese. Just as a parish would not stop offertory during a parish campaign, the Archdiocese must continue its annual appeal.

Parishes rely on their offertories. Throughout the campaign, pastors will ask parishioners to make commitments above and beyond regular giving. Parishioners are asked not to diminish giving to the offertory or the Archbishop’s Call to Share, but rather to consider an increased commitment to the Church. Parishioners are encouraged to continue to embrace stewardship as a way of

Each parish target will be set at 1.2 times the average ordinary income from the years 2015-2017. 50% of annual school subsidies will be deducted from the target for tithing parishes.

Each parish will receive 25% of the funds that are collected from its parishioners up to the parish target. These funds are to be allocated to needs outlined in its parish case for support. Parishes that exceed their target will receive 50% of the funds collected above their target. Funds collected will be dispersed every six months. In addition, support of our priests and evangelization efforts will greatly benefit every Catholic family.

Genuine stewardship encourages gifts of equal sacrifice, but not gifts of an equal dollar amount. Ultimately, your thoughtful and prayerful decision will be most appropriate and most appreciated.

Donors are encouraged to make their gift commitment payable for up to a three-to five-year period.
