"It is humiliating to have to
beg, but it is a privilege for this corporal work of mercy in
renewing the Catholic priesthood. Our staff and offices are small,
but our funding needs are substantial. Consequently we have incurred
a lot of debt serving priests, and the mission continues to grow.
Please consider contacting me about making a donation or referring
me to someone you know."
Joe Maher,
President joemaher@opusbono.org

"We really need your help!" |

- Thousands of Catholic priests have contacted Opus Bono Sacerdotii (Opus Bono) and one new priests calls, emails, or writes Opus Bono each day.
- Hundreds of Bishops, including Pope Benedict XVI encourage the work of Opus Bono and the care we provide for them and their priests.
- We have a staff of only four full-time and six part-time lay people and priests serving thousands of priests and bishops.
- The mission of Opus Bono is primarily in serving priests in
the USA, however, there are many priests outside of the USA
that are now seeking Opus Bono for assistance.
- The Holy See has asked us to help priests.
- We turn no priest away.
- Many active priests experiencing some personal crisis now contact Opus Bono for advice and support, and their bishops encourage them to seek our help.
- Opus Bono charges no fees to priests or bishops for the services it provides and must rely entirely on donations to survive.
- Opus Bono Sacerdotii is the only lay organization of its type in the world.
- As more priests come to Opus Bono for help, more funding resources are needed to support them.
- We have a policy in our office, when a priests calls we drop everything to talk with him: serving the priests first, everything else second.
- Your contribution is much needed and much appreciated! You can make an online donation by clicking FUNDING. Or send a check to Opus Bono Sacerdotii, 3430 E. Jefferson Ave. Suite 309, Detroit, MI 48207.

"It is edifying to see such lay people willing to risk everything to help so many in the ministerial priesthood. It is a priviege for me to be here, thank you."
