Dear Members of the FaithND Family,

As the holidays quickly approach, we may find ourselves busier than we would like and needing time for quiet reflection. It is these moments that I, along with so many people I meet, am so grateful for the gift of FaithND. So many are inspired by the daily variety of our gospel reflections, available in written and audio format, and others are buoyed by our offerings of Grotto prayer intentions, Friday Rosaries, seasonal offerings, Everyday Holiness podcast episodes, and much more.

It is only with the foundation built by you, our faithful audience, that we can continue to grow and expand the spiritual nourishment we long to share. Today, we humbly ask for your prayerful support of this ministry.

While this appeal will conclude on Wednesday, December 31, those who make a gift by Wednesday, December 3, will be included in our shipment before Christmas.

Every gift makes a difference, and in gratitude for gifts of $100 or more, we are pleased to share a special offering this year. In partnership with Ave Maria Press, we are sending our audience a copy of a new and popular book, Pray Like a Champion Today: Sacred Stories from the Sidelines of Notre Dame Football by Fr. Nate Wills, C.S.C. In addition, we are also including a holy medal blessed by Fr. Nate, just like the ones given to members of the football team each game day!

All of this is simply another effort to share inspiring stories of faith with each of you, and we are thankful for any support you can provide. Know that you always remain in our prayers as valued members of our Notre Dame family of faith!

Yours in Notre Dame, 

Dolly Duffy ’84
Executive Director
Notre Dame Alumni Association
