WHAT IS THE BISHOP’S SERVICES APPEAL?

The BISHOP’S SERVICES APPEAL (BSA) has been Supporting the Works of Christ by serving others and ministering to those in need since 1973. The BSA is an annual appeal accomplished as a result of the combined participation of our 121 church parishes and 28 missions.

Located across eight civil parishes, the Diocese of Lafayette is able to make available vital programs, ministries and services through the generosity of donors.

The BSA is a primary source of funding for sustaining and expanding the nearly 40 ministries of the Diocese. Gifts to the appeal enhance diocesan efforts to provide hope, dignity and compassionate care in the lives of others. It is a reminder that as faithful Catholics, we are compelled to be part of a Church, a communion of believers, which is greater than ourselves and not limited to our local church parishes.
