"Parishes are called to reach out to the hurting, the poor, and the vulnerable in our midst in concrete acts of charity. Just as the gospel tells us our lives will be judged by our response to the "least of these," so too our parishes should be measured by our help for the hungry, the homeless, the troubled, and the alienated-in our own community and beyond."

Thank you for checking in on our fundraising page for CHUM! St. Mary Star of the Sea and the Cathedral have been members of CHUM for many years now, and our partnership in serving those on the margins in Duluth is essential to our call to follow the Gospel. We partner with CHUM because we know their work contributes to the dignity of the human person. Please consider making a gift this year and making the love of Jesus felt for our vulnerable neighbors.
