What Is a Parish Appeal?

What Is a Parish Appeal? ACN UK invites Catholic parishes across the UK to host a Parish Appeal – a powerful opportunity to hear first-hand how your support brings faith, hope, and charity to suffering Christians around the world.

A Parish Appeal is a short talk delivered during Mass by one of ACN’s trained speakers. It brings to life the stories of persecuted and suffering Christians, inviting parishioners to respond in faith and charity.

During the appeal, your parish will:

  • Hear real stories from the global Church in need
  • Learn how ACN supports priests, religious and lay faithful
  • Be invited to support ACN’s mission through prayer and giving

Contact the ACN UK team for questions and support

How to book an appeal

ACN has dedicated staff who would be delighted to visit your parish or group virtually or in person to talk about the plight of suffering and persecuted Christians around the world.

Booking a Parish Appeal is a very simple and flexible process. Please contact our Community Outreach team to discuss when someone from their team can come and speak to your congregation.
