PSA


2025

“Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied.”

— Luke 6:21



The annual Diocese of Orange Pastoral Services Appeal, or PSA, is one important way we share Christ’s light in our community and inspire others to do the same. Each year, the PSA provides essential funding to support formation, education, and outreach across our Diocese. As Disciples of Christ, our calling is simple yet profound: “Love one another as I have loved you” (John 13:34). Each of us at Christ Cathedral Parish is invited to love others in our own unique way. When we answer this call to loving service, we discover interior joy and bring the hope of God’s love to the world.

This year’s appeal theme is “Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied.Our diocesan goal this year is $166,000. This is a wonderful opportunity to raise funds to support our parish project. Every dollar raised above this diocesan goal will be returned to the parish as a rebate and will be designated to the Rectory Building Fund. The rectory needs room expansions to accommodate our priests.

Here, we support the call to build up God’s Kingdom by supporting the mission and ministries of our local Church.
