As we approach Valentine’s Day, a time when love and kindness are celebrated in every corner of our lives, the Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of El Paso invites you to share your love in a way that will make a meaningful difference. This year, the Sacred Heart Mission in Valentine, Texas, is reaching out to our extended Catholic community to help bring warmth, hope, and compassion to help them with dire improvements to their parish like a new roof and indoor plumbing.

With rising costs of everyday living essentials, we need to budget our personal finances more than ever. Many monthly bills like gas, water, and electricity can be made monthly using an automatic payment processing system. Automatic withdrawals ensure that your bills are being made on time. The same can be done for a donation. Our easy-to-use online payment management system allows you to create a recurring gift to a Catholic cause of your choice. 

Learn the five reasons why donating a small amount over time through a recurring gift can benefit you, the Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of El Paso, and our Catholic community.

Our Major Gifts Officer, Analisa Cordova-Silverstein, will visit West Texas from January 23 to 26, 2025, to meet with parishioners and educate them about the Catholic Legacy Endowment funds the Catholic Foundation has for the parishes and missions in West Texas.

Each October, with support from the Catholic Foundation, the Diocese of El Paso calls upon all parishes, monasteries, seminaries, and chapels that celebrate Saturday Vigil and Sunday Masses to participate in a Mass Attendance Count.
