WASHINGTON, D.C.— Donors surpassed the $80,000 goal in this year’s annual Day of Giving for the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA (AMS). The AMS gratefully accepted more than $95,000 from 337 donors on July 21, its 40th birthday.
Proceeds will support Team Saint Paul (TSP), a growing ministry of Catholic lay people sent by the AMS to accompany young adult servicemen and women, ages 18-29, on their journey of Christian discipleship and faith at the installations where they serve.
Mr. Salvador Perez, AMS Executive Director of Advancement, said: “We are incredibly grateful to the AMS faithful. For the past four summers, they have joined us in prayer and almsgiving to support TSP and our military young adult community, whom they serve. Their prayers and generosity have led to the expansion of TSP to multiple installations. Thank you to everyone who contributed with a prayer or a gift; both are greatly needed!”
It’s not too late to contribute to the 2025 Day of Giving. Gifts will be gratefully accepted for the rest of the year at givingday.milarch.org/.
