In announcing the Jubilee Year 2025, Pope Francis invited the faithful to “fan the flame of hope that has been given to us” by becoming “pilgrims of hope.” Here in the Diocese of Trenton, we joyfully embrace this call through our support of the Annual Catholic Appeal.

As pilgrims of hope, we journey together in faith, strengthened by the ministries that bring Christ’s love and light to our Diocese, parishes, and Catholic institutions. Through the Appeal, we fulfill the Church’s Gospel mission to share hope and serve others across our four counties, building a brighter future for all.

​What is the Eucharistic Revival?

It is a movement of Catholics across the United States to be healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist—and sent out in mission “for the life of the world.” The National Eucharistic Revival and National Eucharistic Congress are a direct response to the Holy Father’s call for a “pastoral and missionary conversion which cannot leave things as they presently are” so that the Church in the United States might be “permanently in a state of mission” (Evangelii Gaudium, n. 25).

Please do not be overwhelmed by the many avenues this updating will be provided to you. We only request you respond once.  We are doing this because of how essential it is as we move forward to creating and implementing programs to better minister to you.
