The Bless Our Priests collection provides direct support to the retired priests of the Diocese of Madison. Faced with the challenge of rising retirement and healthcare costs, your contribution allows us to care for all the priests that have devotedly served the people in our Diocese. 

This collection is the only annual collection for retired priests of the Diocese of Madison. This fundraising campaign will benefit just the retired priests of the Diocese of Madison and is not to be confused with the National Retirement Fund for the Religious collection (RFR),which supports religious order nuns and priests. Diocesan priests do not receive funds from the National RFR collection.
